VP_Don't Talk to the Actors logoDON’T TALK TO THE ACTORS
Village Players
April 21-29
[Fort Thomas]

Directed by Merritt Beischel
Produced by Nathan Henegar

Cast: Aaron Whitehead as Jerry Przpezniak, Patricia Mullins as Arlene Wyniarski, Alan Kootsher as Mike Policzek, Heather Abbott as Lucinda Shaw, Mark Metzner as Curt Logan & Marypat Carletti as Beatrice Pomeroy

The best laid plans go awry when the cast and crew of a Broadway-bound play resort to manipulation, diva-like behavior, and chaotic abandon to get what they want. Fledgling playwright Jerry Przpezniak and his fiancée are a couple of Buffalo greenhorns suddenly swept up in the whirlwind of New York’s theater scene when Jerry’s play is optioned for the big money, ego-driven world of Broadway. It’s a young playwright’s dream, but the crazy characters and dilemmas they encounter are the things theatrical nightmares are made of.

MEMORY HOUSE Runs April 20-22

MUHT_Memory HouseMEMORY HOUSE
Miami University Hamilton Theatre
April 20-22
Studio 307 (Phelps) [Hamilton]

Directed by Bekka Eaton
Produced by Haley Goodwin

Cast: Victoria Pettis & Olivia Works

One winter night a woman bakes a pie as a girl tries to finish her college essay. As the deadline looms, unexamined issues of the girl’s adoption from Russia, the rupture of her parents divorce, and the fear of leaving home break through the surface as the mother cajoles, deflects, and maneuvers around her own feelings of sadness and loss. Unfolding in real time, MEMORY HOUSE is about a young and an older woman who are forced to grapple with the past as they face an uncertain future. A funny and moving story about the complexity of living in the world today.
