Photo Flash: THE SEAFARER at San Diego REPertory Theatre
San Diego REPertory Theatre proudly presents THE SEAFARER, the unforgettable comic-drama that has become a holiday hit on American stages across the country since its Broadway debut in 2007. Directed by Delicia Turner Sonnenberg, this rousing drama recounts the story of four lifelong friends who get together on Christmas Eve and end up making a bet with the devil in disguise. Written by one of Ireland's most celebrated young playwrights, Conor McPherson, THE SEAFARER transports audiences to a bungalow just north of Dublin, a magical part of the world where the natural and the supernatural live side by side with the hard-living working man.
THE SEAFARER features a powerhouse of talent, including: Armin Shimerman as the belligerently funny Richard Harkin; Ron Choularton as his secret-laden brother Sharky; Robert Townsend as the small town hustler Nicky, Paul Kruse as the bumbling sidekick Ivan, and REP Artistic Director Sam Woodhouse as the Prince of Darkness, determined to go "home" with the biggest prize possible.
THE SEAFARER features a set designed by Robin Roberts.
Performances begin in previews on Saturday, November 14, 2009, with an Opening Night performance on Friday, November 20 at 8pm, and continue through December 13, 2009 at The Lyceum Stage, 79 Horton Plaza.
Tickets are available for $27-$47 (student discount $18) at the Lyceum Box Office (619) 544-1000 or online at www.sdrep.org.
