GREATER TUNA by
J.Williams, J.Sears & E.Howard |
presented by Bridge to Broadway Theatre
Group,
directed by Tom Kirschner and Dennis Szalai
|
What do Arles Struvie, Thurston Wheelis, Aunt Pearl, Petey Fisk, Phineas Blye and Rev.
Spikes all have in common? They are some of the fine, upstanding citizens of Tuna - Texas'
"3rd smallest town" - in this hilarious send-up of small-town mores; and they
are all played by two actors! In this Off Broadway hit the authors re-created virtually
the entire population of "Tuna" in a tour-de-farce of quick-change artistry,
both of costumes and of comic characterizations. We doubt you'll find a comedy more
clever, more inventive, more fun, more downright wild! Slightly restricted.

SEASCAPE by Edward
Albee |
presented by Stage
North Theatre Society,
directed by Teela Gould
|
As the play opens, we discover Charlie and Nancy relaxing on the beach after a picnic
lunch. A long-married couple on the verge of old-age, they begin to discuss their
expectations for the future. Just as they have reached what seems like a state of impasse,
the extraordinary comes to them in the form of Leslie and Sarah, a pair of human-shaped,
talking lizards that climb up onto the dune to explore an unknown world. Dignity,
jealousy, arms, legs and breasts are some of the things they share ..... or do they?
June Ainsworth - Nancy
Dave Eaton - Charlie
Mike Odowichuk - Leslie
Terry Boyle - Sarah

SHAKESPEARE'S LADIES MEET by C. George |
presented by Stage
North Theatre Society,
directed by Christine McGhghy

Imagine the fun when six of Shakespeare's heroines get together to discuss the
universal topic - love. Juliet has just fallen in love with Romeo and the other ladies of
the Bard's imagination convene to enlighten her on the best method of conducting a
romance. We have a wonderful cast of six local ladies with varying degrees of
experience. A laugh will be had by all.
