No Curtain Productions to Premiere PRESSURE POINTS Double Bill in Penryn
The double-bill features HELLEVATOR and HAMMER, both written and directed by King, at Mandarin Hollow Theatre.
No Curtain Productions will present PRESSURE POINTS, a world premiere double bill written and directed by Brian King, from June 12–14 at Mandarin Hollow Theatre in Penryn, California.
The production includes two original plays, Hellevator and Hammer. According to the announcement, Hellevator is a dark comedy centered on two strangers trapped inside a malfunctioning Art Deco elevator following a practical joke gone wrong. The second play, Hammer, takes place in the locker room of a California State Arm-Wrestling Championship and follows an athlete confronting personal questions of identity while preparing for competition.
The cast includes world champion arm wrestler Sontino Bravo alongside Jessica Martinelli, Michael Coleman, and Caleb Purciel. Micki King serves as stage manager, with graphics by Juice Creative Studios.
Artistic Director Brian King said in a statement, “We're aiming for that rare sweet spot where the theater feels as alive as the people sitting in it, sharing the same Penryn night air.”
Performances are scheduled for 7:00 p.m. on June 12 and June 13, with a 6:00 p.m. performance on June 14.
The production will take place outdoors at Mandarin Hollow Theatre, located at 2225 Highland Way in Penryn. Admission is by donation, with a suggested contribution of $20 available at the door or via Venmo.
Now in its second season, No Curtain Productions previously presented Goat, Stump, Tomato, and Kennedy’s Children as part of its ongoing focus on Original Theatre work in Placer County.
