Fells Point Corner Theatre Debuts HAMLYN, 2/14-3/8
In the search for truth, whom do you trust? Hamlyn is a beautiful city that glitters by day-but at night the rats emerge. A wealthy citizen is accused of buying sexual favors from a young, disadvantaged boy. However as the plot unravels, it becomes increasingly difficult to discover the reality of what actually happened in Hamlyn.
Playwright, Juan Antonio Mayorga Ruano, is among the most renowned of the contemporary Spanish playwrights. He focuses on the "underbelly of life," combining his social-historic reflections as a philosopher with his keen sense of humor and drama. His plays transcend national barriers, have been translated into over twenty-five languages and are performed in Europe's principal theatres and throughout the world.
Hamlyn, winner of the 2005 National Theatre Prize in Spain, is directed by Barry Feinstein, who began directing at the old Corner theatre in 1976. He directed last season's highly acclaimed Tales of Ordinary Madness, as well as our season closer, Amadeus. He also directed Glengarry, Glen Ross, Ruined, The Seafarer, The Miser, The Homecoming and Bug. Featured in the cast of Hamlyn are: Helenmary Ball, Candice Fabian, Kali Jones, Jim Knost, Sammie Real, Lyndsay Soeder, Debbie Stuehler, Tavon Vincent, Karim Zelenka and Mike Zemarel.
