September 5, 6, 7, 11, 12, 13, 14 3 male 2 female; all characters between 25 – 35 Adam Brenda Clark Cleo Edmund It’s election day and Adam knows his over-zealous girlfriend will never forgive him if he fails to vote. But, when his sex starved sister, an eco-terrorist, and a mayoral candidate willing to do anything for a vote all show up, Adam finds that making that quick trip to the polls might be harder than he thought. Election Day is a hilarious dark comedy about the price of political (and personal) campaigns. (Adult situations and language.)
October 17, 18, 19, 23, 24, 25, 26 4 male 6 female; 20s – 70s Hamilton Penworthy – 70 Lucien Tomb – 50 Dora Tomb – 49 Emily Tomb – 46 Marcus Tomb – 43 Anne Franklin – 25 Agatha Hammond – 65 Freda Mountjoy – mid-age Perry Potter – 35 Monica Tomb - 35 In a sinister old library presided over by the portrait of a grim-faced, mad-eyed old man, a dusty lawyer reads a will (involving millions) to an equally sinister family – one member of which has werewolf tendencies, another wanders around in a toga of Julius Caesar, a third is a gentle elderly lady who plants more than seeds in her flower-beds. By the third act there are more corpses than live members left in the cast: and what about the sympathetic nurse and the author of romantic novels – are they all, or more than they seem to be? All is revealed as the plot twists and turns to its surprising conclusion.
December 5, 6, 7, 11, 12, 13, 14 4 male 3 female; including four children – ages 12 – 16, their parents and an elderly nun Chet Pazinski – mid 40s Ellen Pazinski – early 40s Rudy Pazinski – 12 George Pazinski – 13 Eddie Pazinski – 15 Annie Pazinski – 16 Sister Clarissa – 70s In that most idealized period of 20th century America, the Eisenhower years of the 1950s, the Pazinski family has a lot going in their cramped Buffalo apartment. The youngest of the bunch, 12 year old Rudy, is a smart, wise-cracking kid who’s starting to question family values and the Roman Catholic Church. When Rudy goes up against the ruler-wielding Sister Clarissa and announces that instead of being confirmed he’d rather shop around for a more “fun” religion, all hell breaks loose. A warm and hilarious look at family, growing up, and God.
January 30, 31, February 1, 5, 6, 7, 8 2 male 5 female; 20s – 30s; one female in her 50s Kelly Maginot – 32 Brigitte Maginot – 50s Lili Vance – 24 Zoe Descartes – 34 Lorraine Davis – 35 Mike Maginot – 29 Enrique Manuel de Guzman - 32 Kelly Maginot is throwing her girlfriends the perfect dinner party … or so she thinks. Her impossible mother, Brigitte, is in town. Plus her brother is secretly dating her friend Zoe, who just quit her job, and her other friend Lorrie has postponed a wedding, and her sexy almost-boyfriend Enrique might drop by at any moment. Will Kelly make it through the evening in one piece, or will she fly off the handle, pitch a fit, push everyone’s buttons, and completely alienate all her friends – in short, will she become her mother?
March 20, 21, 22, 26, 27, 28, 29 3 male 2 female; 20s – 50s Sidney Bruhl – 50 Myra Bruhl – 40s Clifford Anderson – 20s Helga Ten Dorp – 50s Porter Milgrim – 50s Seemingly comfortably ensconced in his charming Connecticut home, Sidney Bruhl, a successful writer of Broadway thrillers, is struggling to overcome a “dry” spell which has resulted in a string of failures and a shortage of funds. A possible break in his fortunes occurs when he receives a script from a student in the seminar he has been conducting at a nearby college – a thriller Sidney recognizes immediately as a potential Broadway hit. He offers collaboration to the student, an idea which the younger man quickly accepts. Thereafter suspense mounts steadily as the plot begins to twist and turn with devilish results.
May 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 16, 17 7 male 4 female; various ages (women can double) Freddy – 30s – 40s Gaston – 60 Germaine – 35 Albert Einstein – 25 Suzanne – 19 Sagot – 50s Picasso – 23 Schmendiman – a young man A Singer - 25 This long running Off-Broadway absurdist comedy places Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso in a Parisian café in 1904, just before the renowned scientist transformed physics with his theory of relativity and the celebrated painter set the art world afire with cubism. These two geniuses muse on the century’s achievements and prospects as well as other fanciful topics with infectious dizziness. Bystanders, including Picasso’s agent, the bartender and his mistress, Picasso’s date, an elderly philosopher, Charles Dabernow Schmendimen and an idiot inventor introduce additional flourishes of humor. The final surprise patron to join the merriment at the Lapin Agile is a charismatic dark haired singer time warped in from a later era. |
