Below, meet the cast of Epic Theatre Company's World Premiere of 'Dorothy, Rose, Sophia, and Blanche' by Kevin Broccoli. Directed by Kate Lester, the production opens tonight and tomorrow at the Academy Players space in Providence.
Epic Theatre Company is proud to present the World Premiere of a biting satire about reboots, remakes, spin-offs, and storytelling--'Dorothy, Rose, Sophia and Blanche.' This is the second show in Epic's Summer of Satire presented at the Academy Players space in Providence.
Treat yourself to She Would if She Could, Head Trick Theatre's delicious production of Sir George Etherege's bawdy comedy of manners, this weekend at AS220.
Epic Theatre is celebrating the summer with a sequel to one of its most successful shows. After last August's "The Boys of St. Matthew's Present Tartuffe," the cast and crew are back, and this time they're taking on one of the most infamous stories of all time-Les Liaisones Dangereuses.
AMERICA STRIPPERS is a show that leaves the audience wiping away tears of laughter as it manages to both take one back to childhood while still remaining very adult. Sound overwhelming? It is, but in a very good way.
Epic Theatre Company begins its 2015 - 2016 "Back to Basics" Season with a world premiere satire-These Ruthless Bitches, inspired by The Women by Clare Boothe Luce. These Ruthless Bitches takes the story of high-class society ladies backstabbing and betraying each other over brunch and sets it in a women's prison where the claws are sharper and the battles are bloodier, but all with class and sophistication, of course.
Tartuffe or The Imposter, by Moliere was first performed in 1664, which may make potential theatregoers feel like they are doing something smart and sophisticated on a Friday or Saturday night by attending this production re-dubbed THE BOYS OF ST. MATTHEWS PRESENT TARTUFFE. It's a smart move, to be sure, but perhaps not quite in the way one would imagine. Kevin Broccoli's Epic Theatre Company has taken this French classic and added the frame of it being a forbidden production in an all boys school, to turn it into a raunchy, homoerotic and hilarious romp that had the tiny audience roaring with laughter.
Epic Theatre Company is nervous as H-E-L-L, because we've turned our theater over to the Boys of St. Matthew's so they can perform their banned version of Moliere's classic play 'Tartuffe.'

At one end of the theatrical spectrum are the big fantasies and storybook epics full of spectacle and wonder. aT the other, the small, intimate, realistic slice-of-life kind of plays. The latter are the plays that take us deep into the world of people just like us, real, breathing human beings with lives very similar to our own. It is this kind of play that Epic Theatre is bringing to the black box at Artists Exchange with their latest production, Amy Herzog's The Great God Pan.
