Berkeley Rep Extends VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE thru Oct 25
Berkeley Repertory Theatre's Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike is a hit with audiences and critics alike. Due to popular demand, this year's Tony Award winner for Best Play from three-time Obie Award-winner Christopher Durang will now play through October 25 for an additional four performances. Critics agree that Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike is this fall's must-see, laugh-inducing comedy:
In the show about a dysfunctional family in rural Pennsylvania, Vanya and Sonia have frittered their lives away in the family farmhouse - while their sister Masha escaped to become a Big Movie Star. When Masha returns unannounced with her boy toy, the stage is set for a fabulously funny family reunion. A Chekhovian mash-up with a whole lot of heart, this smash comedy will have you simultaneously laughing and contemplating family, miracles, and life's glorious second chances.
VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE is directed by Richard E.T. White. Creative team: Kent Dorsey (scenic designer), Beaver Bauer (costume designer), Alexander V. Nichols (lighting designer), and Rob Milburn and Michael Bodeen (composers and sound designers).
The cast features: Anthony Fusco (Vanya), Lorri Holt (Masha), Mark Junek (Spike), Caroline Kaplan (Nina), Sharon Lockwood (Sonia), and Heather Alicia Simms (Cassandra).
