SCR Presents THE LANGUAGE ARCHIVE Thru 4/25, DOCTOR CEBERUS Thru 5/2
South Coast Repertory Theatre Presents a last chance to see the world premiere of two shows, THE LANGUAGE ARCHIVE through April 25 and DOCTOR CERBERUS through May 2.
THE LANGUAGE ARCHIVE written by Julia Cho with direction by Mark Brokaw. George is a brilliant linguist. But he has a communication problem-with his wife, who's about to leave him, and with his assistant, who can't bring herself to leave him. This romantic comedy, by one of America's most exciting young playwrights, proves love is the one language that can leave us all at a loss for words.
Now through April 25. Tickets are $34-$59. There will be an ASL interpreted performance for the deaf community on Saturday, April 24, at 2:30pm.
DOCTOR CERBERUS written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa with direction from Bart DeLorenzo. In the suburbs of Washington, D.C. in the mid-1980s, 13-year-old Franklin Robertson is trying to survive. His parents don't understand him. His older brother torments him non-stop. He'd rather write stories than go on dates. His great comfort comes from the horror movies he watches every Saturday night at midnight, on a black-and-white TV set in his basement, introduced by the enigmatic Dr. Cerberus. In fact, Franklin feels certain that Dr. Cerberus can save his misfit life-if only Franklin could get on his show.
SCR, founded in 1964 and continuing today under the leadership of Artistic Directors David Emmes and Martin Benson, is widely regarded as one of America's foremost producers of new plays. In its three-stage Folino Theatre Center, SCR produces a five-play season on its Segerstrom Stage, a four-play season on its Argyros Stage, plus two annual holiday productions. SCR also offers a three-play Theatre for Young Audiences series, and year-round programs in education and outreach.
Through May 2. Tickets are $20-$65. There will be two Post Show Discussion Nights on Tuesday, April 20, and Wednesday, April 21. There will be an ASL interpreted performance for the deaf community on Saturday, May 1, at 2:00pm.
