The Guthrie today announced complete casting for Harold Pinter's The Caretaker, directed by Associate Director of Studio Programming Benjamin McGovern. Actors Steven Epp (Davies), Stephen Cartmell (Mick) and Kris L. Nelson (Aston) team up for this provocative piece, widely considered to be Pinter's first commercial and critical success.
Jeffrey Hatcher's hilarious adaptation of The Government Inspector closed late last month, concluding the Guthrie's official 2007-08 season. The 2008-09 season, kicked off by Little House on the Prairie, features an entire season of plays for the two main stages that are receiving their first-ever Guthrie productions.
Berkeley Repertory Theatre announced another extension for its production of 'No Child…'
As Berkeley Rep's 40th season blazes to a close, theatre fans losing their heads over Figaro and the French Revolution have two unique opportunities to interact with the play: a Page to Stage talkback with the show's stars and a meeting of the Berkeley Rep Book Club.
Figaro runs April 25 through June 8. This show marries Mozart and Theatre de la Jeune Lune, the Tony Award-winning artists who brought you The Miser in 2006. No Child… runs May 11 through June 1. It's the stunning solo show about America's public schools from Obie Award-winner Nilaja Sun.
This spring, Berkeley Repertory Theatre's 40th birthday party comes to a gorgeous crescendo with the West Coast premiere of Figaro. After bringing us a delicious date with The Miser in 2006, the Tony Award-winning Theatre de la Jeune Lune returns for another eccentric take on a timeless text. Inspired by Mozart and Beaumarchais, Figaro is adapted by Steven Epp and Dominique Serrand, who also perform the lead roles alongside exceptional actors, superb singers, and a live string quartet. Presented in Berkeley Rep's state-of-the-art Roda Theatre, this magical production begins previews on April 25, opens April 29, and closes June 8.
Every year, Bay Area audiences see guests engaged in conversation at Berkeley Repertory Theatre - and the tradition continues in 2008 with Page to Stage. Today, the Tony Award-winning theatre announced the speakers for this year's free events.
Stepping into the La Jolla Playhouse, it is easy to immediately be transported into an abstract world of delightfully foreign art, thanks to the staging of Pierre Marivaux's classic La Fausse Suivante, completely re-imagined as The Deception...
The complete 2007 La Jolla Playhouse season has been announced, with The Deception, after the quake, The Adding Machine and the Broadway-bound musical Cry-Baby joining the previously announced Carmen and The Seven.
