This sexy, awkward, and very funny script envisions a dark future where some humans want to be like the ruling robot class. It asks questions about what it means to be human, what we should desire, and what we're willing to give up to achieve our dreams.

Photo Flash: HAPPY DAYS At The Guthrie
by Gabrielle Sierra - Minneapolis / St. Paul
(02/16/2009) - Veteran Guthrie actors Sally Wingert and Richard Ooms team with director Rob Melrose for Samuel Beckett's masterful two-character drama Happy Days. The production, which serves as the Dowling Studio debut for both actors, begins previews February 14, opens February 18 and plays through March 8, 2009. Single tickets are priced from $18 to $30, with opening night priced at $34. Tickets are now on sale through the Guthrie Box Office at 612.377.2224, toll-free 877.44.STAGE, 612.225.6244 (Group Sales) and online at http://www.guthrietheater.org/. This intense and strictly concentrated two-character drama features an eternally optimistic Winnie inexplicably buried waist-deep in a mound of earth, clinging to her life of arbitrary routines and rituals. Her husband, Willie, appears from time to time and replies only occasionally to her cheerful chatter, a source of comfort as she remains ever hopeful that 'this is going to be a happy day.' With its vivid sense of the bizarre and a blend of humor and compassion, Happy Days represents one of the Nobel Prize-winning writer's finest works. The play is minimalist, concentrated to the bare elements needed to make Winnie's resilience apparent in the stream of her thoughts and emotions, allowing the Irish playwright, poet and novelist an opportunity to offer a penetrating and uncompromising exploration of the human condition. As is the case with all of Beckett's work for the stage, Happy Days is an utterly spare and precise play, with every detail carrying the exact weight and degree of importance determined by the author. Co-founder and artistic director of San Francisco's The Cutting Ball Theater, Melrose previously directed Pen (2007) in the Dowling Studio, and served as assistant director for the Guthrie's 2003 production of Othello. He leads an artistic team that includes Michael Locher (Set Designer), Christine Richardson (Costume Designer), Frank Butler (Lighting Designer), Michael Lupu (Dramaturgy), Martha Kulig (Stage Manager) and Meaghan Rosenberger (Assistant Stage Manager). About the Guthrie The Guthrie Theater, founded in 1963, is an American center for theater performance, production, education and professional training. The Guthrie is dedicated to producing the great works of dramatic literature, developing the work of contemporary playwrights and cultivating the next generation of theater artists. Led by Director Joe Dowling since 1995, the Guthrie opened a new three-theater home on the banks of the Mississippi River in Minneapolis in June 2006. The Guthrie is located at 818 South 2nd Street (at Chicago Avenue), in downtown Minneapolis. To purchase tickets or season subscriptions call the Guthrie Box Office between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. daily at 612.377.2224 or toll-free 877.44.STAGE.

Photo Flash: Theatre In The Round Opens 'I AM A CAMERA'
by Gabrielle Sierra - Minneapolis / St. Paul
(02/03/2009) - Theatre in the Round Players (TRP) presents I AM A CAMERA by John van Druten in weekend performances February 13 through March 8. A young English novelist is living in a rooming-house in Berlin, a decadent city in the years before Hitler, trying to write a journal of his experiences. Enter Sally Bowles, a vivacious, mercurial spirit in green fingernail polish, living from gin to gin. They soon develop a friendship ? an alliance against a world slowly going mad outside their door. At times funny, at times intense, this dark drama was the basis for the musical CABARET. Matt Sciple directs a cast of seven, with David McMenomy as Christopher Isherwood and Katie Guentzel as Sally Bowles. Sets are designed by Kesa Collins, costumes by Michelle Clark, and lighting by Daniel Ellis. In a special joint promotion with Chameleon Theatre Circle, which is simultaneously performing CABARET in the new Burnsville Performing Arts Center, audience members will be able to use their ticket stubs from one show for a discount to the other. Tickets are $20. For information, call the theatre's box office at 612-333-3010 or visit its website at www.TheatreintheRound.org.
