Jarrott Productions Announces Cast Of SIGNIFICANT OTHER

Jarrott Productions is pleased to announce the cast of its opening play of Season IV, Joshua Harmon's SIGNIFICANT OTHER. Will Douglas plays Jordan Berman who is looking for "Mr. Right" and finds that it's easier said than done! Playing his three closest friends are Susan Myburgh (Laura), Kelsey Mazak (Kiki) and Natalie Garcia (Vanessa). Austin theatre veteran Janelle Buchanan returns to Jarrott Productions as Jordan's grandmother, Helene. Rounding out the cast are Tanner Smith and Sam Howard, each playing multiple roles as some of the men who connect with Jordan-or don't.

A breezy, spirited comedy, SIGNIFICANT OTHER enjoyed an off-Broadway run in 2015 and transferred to Broadway in the spring of 2017. Harmon explains the premise of the play: "How do you make life work for yourself when you feel that you're not living the life you're supposed to be living or want to be living?" The New York Times included SIGNIFICANT OTHER in its Top Ten Productions of 2015, and called it "a tenderly unromantic romantic comedy, as richly funny as it is ultimately heart-stirring."

SIGNIFICANT OTHER will be directed by David R. Jarrott, with scene design by Michael Krauss, lighting design by Mercedes McCleary, costume design by Colleen PowerGriffin, and sound design by Craig Brock. The Production Manager is Lisa Goering; Production Stage Manager: Jennifer Anderson; Assistant Director/Dramaturg: Zoe Riemer.

Tickets go on sale August 1st. SIGNIFICANT OTHER plays Thursday-Saturday evenings at 7:30pm with Sunday matinees at 2:30pm, September 6-30 at the Trinity Street Playhouse, located in the First Austin Church at 901 Trinity in downtown Austin. More details at www.jarrottproductions.com.
