Fells Point Corner Theatre Presents SIDE MAN Mar. 13 - Apr. 11
Fells Point Corner Theatre proudly presents Side Man by Warren Leight directed by Sherrionne Brown from March 13 to April 11.
This award-winning play pays tribute to a lost era of jazz and big bands, a time before the birth of rock ‘n' roll when jazz musicians were legends. Side Man is the story of Clifford, the son of a jazz musician. His father, a trumpeter or side man, has given up everything, including his relationship with his wife and son for his music. As the play moves seamlessly from the present to the past, Clifford recalls his tortured relationship with his parents and struggles to give up the role he has assumed as "parent" to his mother and father.
"powerfully unsettling...an enormously moving play" Peter Marks, The New York Times
Side Man will be directed by Sherrionne Brown, whose directing credits include The Odd Couple, named one of the five best plays in 2005 and All My Sons, which was nominated for Outstanding Direction with the Greater Baltimore Theater Awards. She also directed Three Days of Rain, After Dinner and Burn This at Fell's Point Corner Theatre. At Spotlighters, she directed Picnic, Mary, Mary and The Lion in Winter, which was named "Best Play of 2007" by broadwayworld.com. She also directed Proof at Cockpit in Court this past summer. Sherrionne has also been involved in over fifty productions as a scenic artist and set designer, in addition to being an accomplished actress.
Appearing in Side Man is a stellar cast of local veteran actors, which includes Dave Gamble, Roy Hammond, Michael Leicht, Sean Mullin, Anne O'Reilly, Adele Russell and Carl Stevens.
