Berkeley's acclaimed Aurora Theatre Company announces the four plays chosen as finalists by a committee of local directors for the sixth annual Global Age Project (GAP), the company's new works initiative that promotes the creation of forward-looking theater: Fire Work by Lauren Gunderson; Silent Disco by Lachlan Philpott; Bird in the Hand by Jorge Ignacio Cortiñas; and Our Practical Heaven by Anthony Clarvoe. The selected plays will be presented as staged readings in a four-week festival at the Aurora Theatre, Mondays, February 7-28, 7:30pm, coinciding with the company's fully-staged World Premiere of Allison Moore's Collapse (January 28-March 6). Collapse originated as one of last season's GAP finalists and is the second main stage production to develop from the GAP. Each GAP reading will be followed by an audience discussion of the contemporary issues raised in each work. For information on GAP events (free and open to the public) and Collapse, the public may call (510) 843-4822 or visit auroratheatre.org.
