Florida Rep Crosses the Pond with Comedy, BEDROOM FARCE! Florida Repertory Theatre is pleased to announce the opening of Bedroom Farce, a wickedly funny comedy from England's favourite playwright, Alan Ayckbourn. Playing January 31 - February 25 with three nearly sold-out discounted previews on Jan. 31, Feb. 1 and 2, Bedroom Farce proves hilariously that sometimes marital discord can be fun...as long as it's someone else's.

Atlanta's 2011 Suzi Awards for professional theatre celebrated 22 companies, hundreds of professional artists, theatre volunteers, and the Center for Puppetry Arts at a gala event Monday evening at the Conant Center on Oglethorpe University's campus. With over four hundred in attendance, the evening began as each of the casts nominated for Ensemble-Musical performed a medley of numbers from their shows. After the performances, all the casts came back on stage to await the announcement of their category's winner, reflecting Melissa McCarthy and friends at the Emmy Awards. The cast of See What I Wanna See at Actor's Express (Kylie Brown, Ingrid Cole, Dustin Lewis, Stuart Schleuse and Craig Waldrip) took home the Suzi and the congratulations of the thirty nominees on stage with them.

The final play of Florida Stage's 24th subscription season is the world premiere of a darkly funny, electric and timely new play by Carter W. Lewis, The Cha-Cha of a Camel Spider.

The Cha-Cha of a Camel Spider continues Florida Stage's first season as the resident company in the Rinker Playhouse at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts.
