Story Synopsis:
A number of guests arrive for a party at a country chateau. Their intertwining relationships create a mix of emotions, with comic results. A play “of many moods…wistfully romantic, satirical, fantastic…To make his points about love (the author) has invented a fable about twin brothers—Frederic, who is shy and sensitive, and Hugo, who is heartless and aggressive. Frederic is in love with a hussy who is in love with Hugo. To save Frederic from an unhappy marriage, Hugo tries to distract him by bringing to a ball a beautiful dancer who masquerades as a mysterious personage and becomes the triumph of the occasion. She is a susceptible maiden in her own right. She not only breaks up all the cynical romances that have been going on before she arrived, but loses her own heart as well.”

All performances will be at The Village Players of Fort Thomas, 8 N Ft. Thomas Ave., Fort Thomas, KY 41075

Storytellers Needed for trueVETERAN at trueTHEATRE

TRUE_logo True Theatre launches Season 8 on Monday, October 30, in the beautiful Memorial Hall with “trueVETERAN”, a theme that couldn’t be more appropriate to their new digs (built, as it was, to honor Cincinnati Veterans of the Spanish-American War and U.S. Civil War).

We’re looking for 5 true, personal stories by- and about Veterans for this show.

Although True Theatre always seeks to approach each show’s theme from different angles, in this case we are looking only for stories about military veterans. Within that context, we will be seeking a variety of approaches to the theme.

It is likely that all (or most) of the storytellers in this show will be Veterans and stories will be about specific events that occurred while- or after serving, but we will entertain stories from people who may not be Veterans themselves, but who have been involved with a Veteran(s) and whose story is about that involvement.

We have a feeling that we will be receiving a lot of story submissions for this show, so we apologize in advance that we can only take 5.

If you have a story that you would like to be considered for inclusion in “trueVETERAN”, write us at stories@truetheatre.com or visit https://www.truetheatre. com/contact-1/.
