Photo Flash: First Look at THIS RANDOM WORLD at Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati
Roll out the red carpet! Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati begins the 2017-2018 Season in its newly renovated theatre with the charming regional premiere of This Random World, a wistful drama by award-winning playwright Steven Dietz. This funny, intimate, and heartbreaking story about the power of chance takes audiences on a journey of self-discovery. The show runs now through November 4, 2017, directed by D. Lynn Meyers, and BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
Fate or luck? Happy coincidence or unintended consequence? Call it what you will, but how often do we intersect with someone else's world and never even know it? Mining the comedy of missed connections, this humorous and bittersweet new play explores the myriad lives that may be happening just out of reach of our own. From dirty diners to beautiful Japanese temples to possibly haunted funeral homes, seven intertwined characters meet-or don't meet-in imaginative and unexpected ways.
The cast features Annie Fitzpatrick (Scottie Ward), Kelly Mengelkoch (Beth Ward), Burgess Byrd (Bernadette), Patrick E. Phillips (Tim Ward), Justin McCombs (Gary), Brianna Bernard (Claire) and Ernaisja Curry (Rhonda).
The production team includes Brian c. Mehring (Resident Scenic & Lighting Designer), Jack Murphy (Technical Director), Matthew Hollstegge (Production Manager & Master Electrician), Shannon Rae Lutz (Properties Master & Design Assistant), Matt Callahan (Sound Designer), and Reba Senske (Costume Designer). Production Stage Manager is Brandon T. Holmes. Assistant Stage Manager is Elizabeth Freyman.
