Seymoure Theater Company Presents: Muldoon- A world premier Gothic drama by Joe Dennison

The Purple Rose Theatre Company has received a grant from the Chelsea Community Foundation for continued support of their new play development partnership with the Chelsea District Library. The mission of the partnership is threefold: to develop new works by Midwestern playwrights for potential production; to involve community members in the play development process; and, to inspire young writers to create their own works for the stage. This grant will provide necessary financial support for the continuation of this partnership, which came to fruition in 2008. Programs will include free public readings, public lectures and a playwriting workshop for middle school and high school students at the Chelsea District Library.

To share an outstanding play of its 2010-2011 season with the widest possible audience, The Drilling Company will mount a return engagement of 'Reservoir' by Eric Henry Sanders from January 6 to 16, 2011. The play is a highly-charged, explosive new work that reveals how the tragedy of a distant war seethes within us. Buchner's 'Woyzeck' is re-imagined as the unsettling homecoming of a Mideastern War veteran--a lowly truck mechanic with PTSD. Sanders peers into the souls of the soldier, his Staff Sergeant, his military psychiatrist (a woman), his closest buddy from overseas who is now serving with him stateside, and his girlfriend who is mother of his infant son. Hamilton Clancy directs. The plain-spoken, powerful drama hits with the force of a mass outcry in our war-weary age. The Drilling Company presented the play's world premiere run from November 4 to 21, 2010.
