Arnie Burton, Rick Holmes & More to Star in David Ives' LIVES OF THE SAINTS at Primary Stages
Primary Stages continues its 30th anniversary season with Lives of the Saints, a world premiere collection of delightfully funny and unforgettable short plays by David Ives (All in the Timing, Venus in Fur) and directed by Tony Award winner John Rando (All in the Timing, On The Town, Urinetown). The limited engagement runs February 3 - March 27, 2015 at Primary Stages at The Duke on 42nd Street - a NEW 42ND STREET project. Opening night is Tuesday, February 24 at 7PM.
Lives of the Saints will feature Arnie Burton (Peter and the Starcatcher, The 39 Steps), Carson Elrod (All in the Timing, The Explorers Club), Rick Holmes (The Threepenny Opera, Peter and the Starcatcher), Kelly Hutchinson (Desire Under the Elms, Don Peyote) and Liv Rooth (All in the Timing, Venus in Fur).
Lives of the Saints features scenic design by Beowulf Boritt, costume design by Anita Yavich, lighting design by Jason Lyons, sound design and original music by John Gromada, wig design by Tom Watson, and casting by Calleri Casting.
"Lives of the Saints marks our seventh production of David Ives' work," says Primary Stages Artistic Director Andrew Leynse. "This collection of short plays, including three new pieces, is a mixture of humor, intellect, and farce and is a transformative step in Mr. Ives' mastery of the one-act form. We are thrilled to be working again with David and his long-time collaborator, director John Rando."
