Conundrum Theatre Company Presents Andrew Lippa's WILD PARTY At The Whitefire Theatre And The Colony Theatre
The Wild Party is a steamy, jazzy, prohibition-era whodunnit.
Burbank-based Conundrum Theatre Company is closing its season with a concert-style performance of Andrew Lippa's The Wild Party. The show opens on Friday, June 24th at the Whitefire Theatre in Sherman Oaks with a second performance on Saturday, June 25th at the Colony Theatre in Burbank. Based on the poem by Joseph Moncure March, The Wild Party is a steamy, jazzy, prohibition-era whodunnit.
Lovers Queenie and Burrs decide to throw the party-to-end-all-parties in their Manhattan apartment. After the colorful arrival of a slew of guests living life on the edge, Queenie's wandering eyes land on a striking man named Black. As the decadence is reaching a climax, so is Burrs' jealousy, which erupts and sends him into a violent rage. Gun in hand and inhibitions abandoned, Burrs turns on Queenie and Black. The gun gets fired, but who's been shot?
The show's production team is comprised of Matt Claiborne Karic (director), Lisa Sedares (music director), Mike Bowers (production manager), Nikki Yates (costume designer), Bryan Snodgrass (assistant music director), John Lucewich (lighting designer), and Kyle Critelli (sound designer).
The talented cast of Burbank and greater Los Angeles area residents includes Whitney Kathleen Vigil (Queenie), Iah Bearden-Vrai (Burrs), Omari Miller (Black), Nikki Yates (Kate), Christina Healy (Madelaine True), Luke Steinborn (Eddie), Bianca R. Turner (Mae), Jack Colyer (Oscar D'armano), Stefanie DeKalb (Phil D'armano), Mike Bowers (Sam), Adam Slemon (Max), Amberlee Clark (Nadine), Jayde Mora (Dolores), and Arden Agos, Taylor Burrows, Kyle Critelli, Angelique Fustukjian, Tayler Green, Malin Hayden, Jordan Kaiser, and Morgan Moessinger in the ensemble.
