Spooky Action Theatre to Present RAMEAU'S NEPHEW

By:

Rameau's Nephew by Shelly Berc and Andrei Belgrader, adapted from Le Neveu de Rameaby Denis Diderot, will be directed by Richard Henirch at Spooky Action Theatre, running October 20 - November 13, 2016.

Musician, maniac, madcap, mimic... and genius all in one, the destitute nephew of the famous Rameau trades witticisms with a logical Philosopher, deconstructing his perfectly rationalized and orderly world with wildly antic energy. The Nephew transforms into an entire cast of hilarious characters as he sets each scene of his argument. Laughably witty, wise and thought-provoking this physical comedy is a delight for the eyes and the mind.

Performances play Thu - Sat evenings at 8:00pm and Sun afternoons at 3:00pm at Spooky Action Theater, 1810 16th St NW, Washington, DC 20009. Tickets: Adults - $30 Th/Sun, $40 Fri/Sat; Seniors - $5 off adult prices; Students - $20 always. Language appropriate for ages 16+.
