Photo Flash: First Look at The Porters of Hellsgate's BREAKING BARD
Fresh off of their sold-out, critically acclaimed run at this year's Hollywood Fringe Festival, The Porters of Hellsgate remount BREAKING BARD, winner of the Ezra Buzzington Spirit of the Fringe Award for Best Writing (Gus Krieger). BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
BREAKING BARD posits one of humanity's greatest, most enduring questions: what if television's Breaking Bad had been written by William Shakespeare? The Porters of Hellsgate present the most lamentable tragedie of Walter of Albuquerque: containing his treacherous plots, his pitiful murther, his tyrannical rise to power, and most deserved death.
The play has been revised and expanded to include even more key moments and favorite characters from television's Breaking Bad, while still maintaining a brisk, one-act format.
Written by Resident Playwright and Associate Artistic Director Gus Krieger (Deity Clutch, Sherlock Through the Looking Glass), BREAKING BARD stars the playwright himself, Gus Krieger, as the villainous Lord Walter, with resident artist Kate O'Toole as his Lady, Skyler. A very special Chorus will be provided by William Hickman. Jesse James Thomas will reprise his Spirit of the Fringe nominated turn as the squire, Jesse.
Nominated for Best Director at the Spirit of the Fringe awards, Drina Durazo is returning to helm this bigger, badder, Bardier production.
BREAKING BARD continues to run on Friday and Saturday nights at 8:00, with Sunday matinees at 2:00 through Sunday, November 1, 2015. There will be no performance on Saturday, October 31st, but an extra performance on closing day at 7:00 pm. All performances will be held at the Whitmore Lindley Theatre, located at 11006 Magnolia Blvd, North Hollywood, California, 91601. Tickets are $25, and available at Brown Paper Tickets.
