Is He Dead?
Adapted by David Ives
Based on the play by Mark Twain

August 17, 18, 19*, 23**, 24, 25, 26*, 30**, 31, September 1, 2012

Jean-Francois Millet, a young painter of genius, is in love with Marie Leroux but in debt to a villainous picture-dealer, Bastien Andre. Andre forecloses on Millet, threatening debtor's prison unless Marie marries him. Millet realizes that the only way he can pay his debts and keep Marie from marrying Andre is to die, as it is only dead painters who achieve fame and fortune. Millet fakes his death and prospers, all while passing himself off as his own sister,
the Widow Tillou. Now a rich "widow," he must find a way to get out of a dress, return to life, and marry Marie. As the riotous scheme unfolds and crazy complications ensue, Twain poses daring questions about fame, greed and the value of art, poking his signature, mischievous fun at everyone involved.

GUERILLA SHOW SERIES... THEATRE WITH A BITE!
John Coffey Refuses to Save the World
A STAGED READING OF A NEW PLAY
Written and directed by Al Letson

FOUR PERFORMANCES ONLY!
September 14, 15, 21, 22, 2012

In John Coffey Refuses to Save the World, John Coffey (the character from the movie The Green Mile) sits in a waiting room with his friends Bagger Vance (The Legend of Bagger Vance), Mother Abigail (The Stand) and god (From Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty). The small group patiently waits for someone to watch their movies so they can go off to work. A new character, a shady con-man, or saintly gentleman -- depending on your point of view -- joins them in the room and begins to ask questions: Why are they in this room in the first place? What is their purpose in life? Why can't they use their magic for themselves? These questions begin to eat away at John Coffey as he is ordered to report to The Green Mile.

In a fit of defiance, John refuses to go and thus upsets the balance of the universe. Every story has its place, make believe or true, and if one story doesn't play its part, all of creation is in jeopardy. John Coffey refuses to save the world while he asks whether we are all destined to play the roles in which we've been cast.

All performances 8:00pm

Several couples arrive at an elegant mansion outside of New York City, expecting a lavish anniversary party but instead discover that there are no servants, the hostess is missing, and the host – the deputy mayor of New York City - has shot himself through the earlobe. It's a race against time as they desperately try to put the pieces together before the other guests show up. As the confusions and mis-communications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity.

In 1953 a new playwright, Robert Anderson, stepped into the Broadway limelight with Tea and Sympathy, a play about a lonely, misunderstood boarding school student. This groundbreaking drama explores a sensitive young man's coming of age amid the taunts and suspicions of his classmates and teachers at a private boy's academy. Only a sympathetic act of compassion by the wife of the headmaster gives young Tom the courage to grow into a man. The Broadway production was a huge hit starring Deborah Kerr who later starred in the critically acclaimed film version.
