THE MYSTERY PLAYS Runs Nov. 6-21

Falcon Theatre presents THE MYSTERY PLAYS, Friday-Nov. 21.

THE MYSTERY PLAYS
Falcon Theatre
Nov. 6-21
Newport

Directed by Lindsey Augusta Mercer

Cast: Jared Earland, Becca Howell, Adam Jones, Simon Powell, Nicole Jeannine Smith & Leah Strasser

Two interrelated one acts. In the first play, The Filmmaker’s Mystery, Joe Manning, a director of horror films, survives a terrible train wreck—only to be haunted by the ghost of Nathan West, one of the passengers who didn’t survive. As the police investigate Joe, he investigates Nathan, desperate to understand why he survived and what Nathan’s specter could possible want. In the second play, Ghost Children, Abby Gilly travels to a small town in rural Oregon to make peace with the man who brutally murdered her parents and younger sister sixteen years earlier. The man—the murderer—is her older brother. Like the original medieval mystery plays, THE MYSTERY PLAYS wrestles with the most profound of human ideas: the mysteries of death, the afterlife, religion, faith, and forgiveness—in a uniquely American way.

Christmas Belles is directed by Merritt Beischel, produced by Dan Maloney, and features the talents of Ann Barfels as Geneva Musgrave, Lauren Woodiwiss as Honey Raye Futrelle, Mandy Goodwin as Gina Jo (G.J.) Dubberly, Geoff Amann as John Curtis Butner, Jennifer Richardson as Twik Futrelle, Peter Merten as Dub Dubberly, Peggy Allen as Frankie Futrelle Dubberly, Nancy Rzonca as Rhonda Lynn Lampley, Patrick Kramer as Justin Waverly, Chris Bishop as Raymond Chisum, and Barbara Karol as Patsy Price.

Middletown

Directed by Charley Shafor

Cast: Rebekah Kay as Susie Keegan, Dick Bell as Walter Keegan, Cate White as Anna Patterson, Aaron Bates as Elliot Cooper, Jeff Neiman as Michael Astor & Kim Eldridge as Nell McNally

A brood of famous and longing-to-be-famous creative artists have gathered at their summer home during the Williamstown Theatre Festival. When the weekend takes an unexpected turn, everyone is forced to improvise, inciting a series of simmering jealousies, romantic outbursts, and passionate soul-searching. Both witty and compelling, THE COUNTRY HOUSE provides a piercing look at a family of performers coming to terms with the roles they play in each other’s lives.
