Photo Flash: First Look at Ashlin Halfnight's THE RESTING PLACE at Magic Theatre

By:

Magic Theatre presents Ashlin Halfnight's World Premiere The Resting Place, the first production of the 2018- 2019 season. The Resting Place will be directed by Jessica Holt. Previews begin on Wednesday, October 10, 2018 at Magic Theatre's Fort Mason location, with a press opening on Wednesday, October 17, 2018 at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are on-sale now.

Ashlin Halfnight's The Resting Place is a provocative and intense look at an American family in a cloudburst of crisis-filled with raw humor, piercing darkness and fierce love. Ashlin Halfnight (Magic Virgin Play Festival 2017) addresses familial obligation and asks: what do we owe each other?

The cast will feature James Carpenter as "Mitch," Emilie Talbot as "Angela," Emily Radosevich as "Macy," Martha Brigham as "Annie," Wiley Naman Strasser as "Liam" and Andrew LeBuhn as "Charles."

In addition to Mr. Halfnight and Ms. Holt, the creative team includes Edward T. Morris (Scenic Design), Sara Huddleston (Sound Design), Shelby-Lio Feeney (Costume Design) and Wen-Ling Liao (Lighting Design).
