Photo Flash: Firehouse Theater Company presents BECKY'S NEW CAR

By:

Have you ever been tempted to flee your own life? Becky Foster is caught in middle age, middle management and in a middling marriage-with no prospects for change on the horizon. Then one night a socially inept and grief-struck millionaire stumbles into the car dealership where Becky works. Becky is offered nothing short of a new life...and the audience is offered a chance to ride shotgun in a way that most plays wouldn't dare.

"Becky's New Car" is that perfect blend of hilarious comedy and substantial weight, a story about choices and consequences that could believably happen to anyone." - Broadway Hour.

Firehouse Theater presents "Becky's New Car" January 7 through February 4 at the John Hand Theater/Colorado Free University, 7653 East First Place in Lowry. Performances are on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., Sunday matinees at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are $23 Adult; $20 for Students/Seniors and are available by calling 303-562-3232 or on line at www.firehousetheatercompany.com.

Lorraine Scott has cast Libby Rife (Becky), Clint Heyn (Joe), Cameron Varner (Chris), David Cevera (Steve), Verl Hite (Walter), Emily Kurland (Kennie) and JillIan Price (Ginger).

Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, Steven Dietz graduated in 1980 with a B.A. in Theatre Arts from the University of Northern Colorado, after which he moved to Minneapolis and began his career as a director of new plays at The Playwrights' Center and other local theaters. Dietz's plays range from the political ("Last of the Boys", "God's Country", "Halcyon Days", "Lonely Planet") to the comedic ("More Fun than Bowling", "Over the Moon"). Many of them, ("Trust", "Private Eyes", "Fiction", "Rancho Mirage") have as a central theme the effects of personal betrayal and deception. In 2010, he was once again named one of the most produced playwrights in America (excluding Shakespeare), placing eighth on the list of the Top Ten Most Produced Playwrights in America, tied with Tennessee Williams and Edward Albee for number of productions.
