Presenting: The Dining Room, by Dramatis Personae, May 5, 6, 13, 2012
Published 2012-04-28 16:39 - (3647 Reads) -The Dining Room
The play is set in the dining room of a typical well-to-do household, the place where the family assembled daily for breakfast and dinner and for any and all special occasions.The action is a mosaic of interrelated scenes—some funny, some touching, some rueful—which, taken together, create an in-depth portrait of a vanishing species: the upper-middle-class WASP. The actors change roles, personalities and ages with virtuoso skill as they portray a wide variety of characters, from little boys to stern grandfathers, and from giggling teenage girls to Irish housemaids.
Each vignette introduces a new set of people and events; a father lectures his son on grammar and politics; a boy returns from boarding school to discover his mother's infidelity; a senile grandmother doesn't recognize her own sons at Thanksgiving dinner; a daughter, her marriage a shambles, pleads futilely to return home, etc.
Dovetailing swiftly and smoothly, the varied scenes coalesce, ultimately, into a theatrical experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor and abundant humanity.

World Premiere of TO BE, by Persephone Productions, April 26 - May 5, 2012
Published 2012-04-24 20:30 - (3229 Reads) -To Be
World Première: An exciting new musical written by Montrealers and set in Montreal. People who have seen it in production are giving it rave reviews!
Featuring original music and the integration of selections from William Shakespeare's masterpieces. Set in Montreal, 'To Be' is the story of Adam, a young man discovering what it means to be true 'to thine own self.' Suffering through a rough patch with love a friend brings him out to a night on the town. That evening, much to his surorise he falls in love with another man. As this strange, new relationship blossoms, Adam is confronted by the ghosts of his past. The not-so-smooth course that lies ahead makes him probe questions that resound in the lives of Generation Y: What does it mean to be in love? To be a man? To be gay? And finally, simply, to be?
