Photo Flash: First Look at THE MAGIC PLAY as Part of 'New Stages' at Goodman Theatre
The 11th annual New Stages Festival kicked off at Goodman Theatre on October 29. Appearing in repertory alongside Feathers and Teeth is THE MAGIC PLAY by Andrew Hinderaker, a play that fuses magic and reality directed by Halena Kays; and Carlyle by Thomas Bradshaw, an exploration of right-wing politics in America through the eyes of an African American Republican directed by Benjamin Kamine. Scroll down for a first look at THE MAGIC PLAY!
THE MAGIC PLAY by Andrew Hinderaker is directed by Halena Kays. THE MAGIC PLAY is a fusion of magic and reality featuring Adam Poss (Diver), Brett Schneider (Magician) and Norm Woodel (Father).
Neena Arndt is the dramaturg and Mara Filler is the stage manager. The play was co-commissioned by the Goodman and Roundabout Theatre Company (New York) and developed in the Goodman's 2013/2014 Playwrights Unit.
The design team for all three developmental productions includes Kevin Depinet (sets), Christine Pascual (costumes), Jesse Klug (lights) and Mikhail Fiksel (sound). Casting was done by Adam Belcuore.
New Stages runs through November 16 in the Owen Theatre free of charge, but reservations are required at 312.443.3800, GoodmanTheatre.org/NewStages or the box office (170 N. Dearborn).
