Photo Coverage: Playwrights Horizons Celebrates Opening Night of POCATELLO
By: Walter McBride Dec. 16, 2014
Playwrights Horizons' production of POCATELLO, the world premiere of a new play by Obie, Drama Desk and Lortel awards winner and 2014 MacArthur Foundation "Genius" grantee Samuel D. Hunter (The Whale at PH, The Few, A Bright New Boise), is directed by Davis McCallum (The Whale at PH, The Few, London Wall, A Bright New Boise, Water by the Spoonful). The production opened last night, December 15 and will play through Sunday evening, January 4, 2015.
Pocatello stars Crystal Finn (16 Words or Less, Breaking the Spell), Jessica Dickey (Wit, Hit the Wall, The Amish Project, Iron), Tony Award nominee Jonathan Hogan (As Is, The Homecoming, Burn This, Fifth of July, Balm in Gilead), Brian Hutchison (Go Back to Where You Are at PH; Exit the King, Man and Boy), Leah Karpel(Jeff Award for Hot L Baltimore at Steppenwolf, 4000 Miles at Long Wharf, The Whale at Victory Gardens), television and stage starT.R. Knight ("Grey's Anatomy," A Life in the Theatre, Romeo and Juliet, Parade), Cameron Scoggins(The Big Meal at PH; Lovers), Obie and Drama Desk awards winner Brenda Wehle(The Big Knife, Come Back Little Sheba, The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide..., Stuff Happens), Danny Wolohan (The Patron Saint of Sea Monsters at PH; An Octoroon) and Elvy Yost (Black Tie, The Belle of Belfast).
Eddie (Mr. Knight) manages an Italian chain restaurant in POCATELLO - a small, unexceptional American city that is slowly being paved over with strip malls and franchises. But he can't serve enough Soup, Salad and Breadstick Specials to make his hometown feel like home. Against the harsh backdrop of Samuel D. Hunter's Idaho, this heartbreaking comedy is a cry for connection in an increasingly lonely American landscape.
