MYTH OF THE FATHER Comes to the Player's Ring, 7/18-27
by BWW News Desk - June 29, 2014
What does it really mean to be a father? Absolutely nothing, at least according to The Myth of the Father, a new comedy written by Lawrence Hennessy and directed by Deb Barry, scheduled to run as a part of The Late-Night Series at the Players' Ring Theatre in Portsmouth from July 18 through July 27. Based on Hennessy's Doctoral Thesis of the same name, The Myth of the Father takes aim at the theory of, "essentialism," the idea that there are certain parental functions which can only be performed by men or women. But don't worry, whenever the temptation to be taken seriously arises, there is plenty of word play, satire, and slapstick to keep things ridiculous.

THE VOYSEY INHERITANCE Comes to Peterborough Players, 8/20-31
by BWW News Desk - June 24, 2014
'The Voysey Inheritance' was written in 1905 by Harley Granville-Barker, however, it tells a tale that proves that there is nothing new under the sun. It is a story that we are all too painfully familiar with if we were keeping up with Bernie Madoff and his fraudulent financial dealings. But, 'The Voysey Inheritance' gives us hope that there still may be some good people out there who might try to set things right.
