Photo Flash: First Look at Artists Rep's THE MONSTER-BUILDER
Artists Rep is currently producing the world premiere of The Monster-Builder, a diabolical comedic treatise on modern architecture, by Amy Freed. As Freed is one of the nation's most lauded and respected new playwrights, Artists Rep is fortunate to host the inaugural production of this play. The Monster-Builder is directed by the esteemed and award-winning Art Manke and features a noteworthy West Coast cast.
A maniacal scheme of fantastical proportions lurks deep inside world-renowned mega-architect Gregor Zubrowski's post-modern steel and glass structures. His commanding presence and curious creative process both titillate and manipulate design professionals and patrons alike into submission. After he casually steals a career-making project, two fledgling architects dare to challenge this monster-builder at his own game. Expect the unexpected from this absurdly funny, wickedly smart, new comedy.
The Monster-Builder - World Premiere, written by Amy Freed and directed by Art Manke, features Michael Elich, Allison Tigard, Gavin Hoffman, Bhama Roget Robin Goodwin Nordli and Don Alder. The show runs January 28 - March 2, playing Wednesday through Sunday at 7:30pm, Sunday at 2pm. Opening Night is Saturday, February 1, 2014. All shows play the Artists Repertory Theatre's Alder Stage (16th and Alder St.) Tickets: $25-$55. Box office: 503.241.1278 or online at www.artistsrep.org.
