JULIET
Falcon Theatre

[Newport]

Directed by Zoe Peterson

Cast: Samantha Joy Weil as Juliet

Visky’s play Juliet is a powerful and important 90-minute one-woman story. The play is based on the experience of the author’s family under the brutal Communist regime in Romania during the early 1960s. The play is told by Visky’s mother, the title character, as a dialog between her and God and sometimes Death as she struggles to survive with her 7 young children in a communist gulag.

LEMONS LEMONS LEMONS LEMONS LEMONS
Falcon Theatre
Nov. 7-22
[Newport]

Directed by Liz Carmen

Cast: Natalie Hayslett as Bernadette & R. Graham Rogers as Oliver

The average person will speak 123,205,750 words in a lifetime. But what if there were a limit? Oliver and Bernadette are about to find out.

Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons imagines a world where we’re forced to say less. It’s about what we say and how we say it; about the things we can only hear in the silence; about dead cats, activism, eye contact and lemons, lemons, lemons, lemons, lemons.  This play subtly confronts censorship by bringing us into the home of one couple confronted with extreme limits.

THE SECRETARY
Falcon Theatre
Sept. 19-Oct. 4
[Newport]

Directed by Claire LaNicca

Cast: Raia Hirsch as Ruby, Emma McGee as Janelle, Kayamarie Roll as April, Angela Nalley as Lorrie, Christine Gallagher as Brandy & Bekka Eaton as Shirley

Ruby runs a small-town gun company that aims to protect women by helping them protect themselves. With products like The Bridesmaid, The Babysitter and The Mallwalker, each of the company’s guns is named after a woman who used a gun and saved a life–more often than not, her own. When an elderly secretary at the local high school confronts a threat in her office with six bullets, Ruby responds by naming her latest gun after the reluctant hero: “The Secretary.” But as production begins on The Secretary, guns start going off all around town–and no one’s pulling the trigger…but sales are through the roof!
