Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum presents Waiting in the Wings, a vibrant, funny, deeply humane comedy by Noël Coward that reminds us that a life well-lived is measured not by applause, but by connection. Set in “The Wings,” a charity home for retired actresses, Coward’s 50th play is a witty and poignant portrait of nine opinionated, funny, difficult and full of life women, each of whom once basked in public admiration.
Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum will present The People of Pompeii, a new comedy by Bernardo Cubría set in Topanga Canyon, co-directed by Ellen Geer and Xochitl Romero.
Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum will present Waiting in the Wings, a vibrant, funny, humane comedy by Noël Coward. Waiting in the Wings will run in rotation every weekend with Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Treasure Island.
Treasure Island, the quintessential coming-of-age adventure story by Robert Louis Stevenson, is coming to the outdoor stage at Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum.
