Shanley's SAILOR'S SONG Next Up for Actors Bridge, 6/3-6/12
Don Griffiths directs a cast of the region's finest actors in the Nashville premiere of John Patrick Shanley's Sailor's Song, running June 3-12 at Belmont University's Black Box Theatre, as Actors Bridge Ensemble - named First Night's Outstanding Theatre Company for 2010 - continues its 2011 season.
Winner of the 2005 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding New Play, Sailor's Song is described as "an extravagant romantic seaside story decorated with dance. In the tradition of Gene Kelly and Eugene O'Neill, who should have worked together but never did, this stylistically daring love story gives us a cynical man and a true believer who battle over beautiful women and the power of love." In its review, New York Times said Sailor's Song "...represents life's more alluringly exotic possibilities.
Starring Bill Feehely, Brent Maddox, Robyn Berg, Jessika Malone, and Carrie Gerow, the production features set design by Paul Gatrell, lighting design by Mitch Massaro, costume design by June Kingsbury, with original choreography by Alyssa Maddox and Carrie Gerow. Rebekah Reimer is stage manager.
