The Lyric Theatre Foundation Presents AFTERSHOCKS by Doug Haverty, Now thru 6/16
The Lyric Theatre Foundation concludes its 2012 season with a newly revised version of AFTERSHOCKS, written by Doug Haverty, and directed by JC Gafford. Opening night is set for tonight, May 11 at 8:00. The limited engagement will continue through June 16.
In AFTERSHOCKS, two escaped housewives from Ohio are having the time of their lives residing in a Valencia trailer park, and being extras in the movies. Everything is great until someone’s past shows up on their aluminum doorstep. Doug Haverty's award-winning plays and musicals have been presented around the world. Several of his plays are published, including COULD I HAVE THIS DANCE? (chosen by the American Theatre Critics Association as Best New Play to be produced outside NYC). His musical (co-written with Adryan Russ) iGhost had its world premiere at the Lyric Theatre in the spring of 2011.
The cast of AFTERSHOCKS will feature (in alphabetical order) Dorrie Braun, Summer Harlow, and Julia Silverman. The lighting design is by Ryan Schull, costume design is by Hunter Wells, and sound design is by Craig Jessen. The stage manager is Holly Wolfstein, and Dorrie Braun produces for the Lyric Theatre Foundation.
Aftershocks will play two preview performances on Wednesday, May 9 and Thursday, May 10, at 8pm. Opening night is set for Friday, May 11 at 8:00, and the engagement will continue through June 16 only. The running schedule is Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:00.
