ART and GOD OF CARNAGE - REZA IN REP
Both plays by Yasmina Reza and translated by Christopher Hampton
ART - directed by Kristen Coury
GOD OF CARNAGE - directed by Cody Nickell

1ST rehearsal of Art: 9/17/12. 1st rehearsal of God of Carnage: 9/19/12. Shows Run: 10/16 - 11/18/12

ART - How much would you pay for a white painting? Would it matter who the painter was? Would it be art? One of Marc's best friends, Serge, has just bought a very expensive painting. It's about five feet by four, all white with white diagonal lines. Marc thinks it's anything but art, but it is the painting that offends him, or Serge's willingness to follow the latest trends? Don't miss this hilarious and acerbic Tony Award-winning comedy that examines the meaning of art, friendship, peer pressureÉand the ultimate value of those you love.

The following roles have been CAST. Actors will be considered for possible replacements if needed.

  • Marc "Art"/Alan "Carnage" - a 40-something, smart, well-spoken man (Alan is a lawyer)
  • Serge - late 30's early 40's, handsome, affable, intellectual and reactionary
  • Yvan "Art"/Michael "Carnage"- late 30's early 40's - funny, loveable, emotional and a bit on the dramatic side (Michael sells plumbing supplies and can have a hard edge when necessary)

GOD OF CARNAGE - The Internationally-acclaimed comedy brings together two sets of Brooklyn parents after a playground altercation between their eleven-year-old boys. Though the meeting to resolve the matter begins with polite pleasantries, it quickly descends into primal madness as tempers flare, loyalties shift and the parents devolve into children. Don't miss this Tony Award-winning comedy that both strikes a chord and hits a funny bone all in one fell swoop!

Seeking:

  • Annette Raleigh - Alan's wife. Mid 20's to Mid 40's. Smarter and funnier than Alan gives her credit for, and has been willing to live within this perceived role (though perhaps fraying at the edges). A bit high strung and very put together. A financial planner by trade.
  • Veronica Novak - Michael's wife. Late 30's early 40's. She is a writer and art-historian. Uber-intellectual and a bit of a know-it-all. Domineering.

The Whipping Man
by Matthew Lopez
Directed by: Matt Pfeiffer

1st rehearsal: 2/25/13. Runs: 3/14 - 3/30/13

In 1865, The Civil War is over and throughout the south, slaves are being freed, soldiers are returning home and in Jewish homes, the annual celebration of Passover is being celebrated. Three men are at a crossroads - a Jewish Confederate soldier who has returned from battle, and his two former slaves. As the three men reunite to celebrate Passover, they wrestle with their shared past and the reality of the new world in which they find themselves. The Whipping Man is a play about redemption and forgiveness, about the lasting scars of slavery, and the responsibility that comes with freedom.

Seeking:

  • John - late 20's to early 30's. African American. John was raised along-side Caleb, until the master/slave relationship was forced on them. Well-read and angry, John wears his new freedom proudly. A trouble maker, righteously indignant, and also hiding secrets he would rather not reveal.

We are always looking for ushers!

If you like the idea of getting to see the show for free, and are willing to donate some of your time, we need you!

Ushers requirements are the following:

  • Please be willing to usher for two shows of each performance (you will be able to watch once)
  • Please be willing to arrive no later than 1 hour and 15 minutes before the performance
  • Please be willing to stay after the show (if you watch) for five minutes to help us tidy up
  • Please wear an outfit with black on the bottom and white on top, and most importantly, bring your smile!
