Cast and Crew Set For Edge Of The Wood's IT IS SO (IF YOU THINK SO!)
Performances run April 5-21, with ticket sales beginning in March.
The Resident Theatre at Edge of the Wood has announced the full cast and crew of Luigi Pirandello's It Is So (If You Think So!), adapted and directed by Sean Hargadon. In Pirandello's 1917 comedy, updated to the 1960s, a new family arrives in a provincial Italian town, causing speculation on their "situation" amongst the neighbors. These conflicting versions of the "truth" force the community to determine whose story is right. Performances run April 5-21, with ticket sales beginning in March.
The ensemble includes Resident Artists Jennifer Cudahy, Herb Metzler, Jeanann Power, and Molly Will; returning artists Brian A. Hill, Lisa Stran, Skyler Tipton and Bethany Weise; and Tony DiPisa, Paige Lang, Keely Smith, James Wheeler, and Kati Yau making their Resident Theatre debuts. John Chambers, Megan Donahue, Will Fisher, Adrienne Grove, Janet Rourke, Ellen Shaw, Anne Shook, Chris Toft, and Sam Waddell fill out the cast as understudies.
The production team includes Brian Wasserman (scenery), Anna Rogers (costumes), Finley Wedge (lighting), and Valen Lion (stage manager).
