BrightSide Theatre Presents VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE

BrightSide Theatre, Naperville's only professional theatre performing in the historic downtown district, continues their 8th Season - Dreamers & Schemers - with the deliriously funny and Tony Award winning Best Play Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike. Performing at the Theatre at Meiley-Swallow Hall at North Central College, 31 S. Ellsworth Street in Naperville March 8-24, 2019. Tickets are on sale now at www.brightsidetheatre.com or by phone at 630-447-TIXS (8497). The press performance is Friday, March 8 at 8pm.

A talented ensemble of actors make up the Cast of Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike:

Stephen Smith of Evanston, Patty Kirin of Lyons, Mary Nigohosian of Batavia, Brandon Torres of West Chicago, Lisa Braatz of Naperville and Alecia Pagnotta of Forest Park.

Vanya and Sonia have never left the confines of their childhood home, while their sister Masha has been gallivanting around the world as a successful actress. A surprise visit from their sister Masha and her hunky boy toy, Spike, throws the normally quiet household into utter upheaval as its residents and visitors get swept up in rivalry, regret, wild costume parties, voodoo dolls and the sudden possibility of escape. A hilarious family reunion you won't soon forget!
