A Bright Room Called Day, 2006-2007 |
WHAT THE BUTLER SAW
by Joe Orton
Directed by John Jensen
October 5, 6, 11, 12, 13 at 8:00 p.m.
October 7 and 14 at 2:30 p.m.
This comedy appalled and enraged audiences with its blatant sexuality and attacks on authority and conventional morality. In his farcical exploration of sexuality and sexual identity, Orton explores the question of who is sane and who is insane.
THE SHADOW OF A GUNMAN
by Sean O'Casey
Directed by Mark Alan Gordon
November 9, 10, 15, 16, 17 at 8:00 p.m.
November 11 and 18 at 2:30 p.m.
O'Casey's first produced play is set in 1920, as the War of Irish Independence rages (the "terrible beauty"). This masterful mixture of comedy and tragedy is an acknowledged masterpiece. This classic, tragic-comedy draws us into a land of shadow that is both stunning and shattering in its relevance.
THE GLASS MENAGERIE
by Tennessee Williams
Directed by Jerrold Scott
Featuring Catherine Albers* as Amanda Wingfield
February 22, 23, 28, 29 and March 1 at 8:00 p.m.
February 24 and March 2 at 2:30 p.m.
This enduring classic made its 1944 debut in Chicago and moved to New York in 1945, where it won the New York Drama Critics Circle Award and the Pulitizer Prize for Drama. Menagerie launched Williams' phenomenal success as a playwright, and started him on the path to becoming an American icon.

TARTUFFE
by Moliere
Directed by Stephen McCue
April 11, 12, 17, 18, 19 at 8:00 p.m.
April 13 and 20 at 2:30 p.m.
Dressed up in Moliere's gloriously glittering verse, this outrageous comedy attacks religious hypocrisy. The poor dupe in this story is a pious and upstanding Parisian gentleman who is completely taken in by one of drama's most enduring comic hucksters, Tartuffe. |
