Hey Guys,

I didn't know whether to post on the off-topic board or not, and there is no Jersey board so I decided it would go here.

So I know there are a lot of fans of BARE on this board and I wanted to let you guys know the FIRST regional production of BARE since its off-broadway run will open August 31st and the Edison Valley Playhouse in NJ. I am in the cast and we started rehearsals last week. It is going to be an amazing production, If I do say so.

I will post ticket info later on, but if you have any questions feel free to PM me.

I know there will be a lot of doubt as to whether or not this is really happening, but I garauntee you that it is. Check out the BARE myspace page, we have rehearsal pics up to prove it.

Hope to see some of you guys at the show!

Timmy

That's sweet! Through what company did you get the rights? I thought that they hadn't been released. Hope the show goes well!

Cheers,

The Bare myspace sent out a couple bulletins with audition dates, otherwise the chances of anyone knowing to audition are slim.

This just HAS to open two weeks after I leave NJ to go to college in Massachusetts ... I might catch a train down for a day because I'm dying to see a live production of this.

The easiest way to get there is to take NJ Transit to Metropark station then take a taxi. Do not go to the Edison station that is too far.

Tim -
Yeah I was definitely very surprised and impressed when I heard a regional theatre in NJ had nabbed the first rights. I'm sure you're having a blast and congratulations to the show. I'm sure I'd enjoy it if I saw it... alas the time-difference. I'm friends with Ryan (Male Swing, Jason u/s), give him my "hello" and break a leg.
