Update on "The Late Mrs. Chadwick" production!

[breakinglight11]

I now have some more concrete information on the upcoming production of my play, The Late Mrs. Chadwick.

The dates of performance will be at 4pm on Sunday, September 30th and 8pm on Saturday, October 6th at the Atlantis Playmakers at 380 Cambridge Street in Burlington. It will be part of a block of short pieces of various types. Tickets will be available for purchase soon, but the website is not updated yet. I will let you know as soon as all the info goes live.

Also, I have assembled a cast and crew! Lenny Somervell and Frances Kimpel will be taking on the roles of Arthur Chadwick and Edwin Shrewsbury respectively, because I think they'd be super-funny cross-cast as stuffy, poncy little Englishmen in tweed suits with moustaches painted on them. The role of Matilda Chadwick, the obnoxious shrieking ghost, will be played by HTP up-and-comer Sam LeVangie, recently seen as Warwick in Margaret and Lavinia in Titus Andronicus. Technical assistance will be provided by Bernie Gabin and Carolyn Daitch. We don't have a lot of tech to be operated at the theater, but we do only have a fifteen-minute slot and as written the play involves a lot of props and a lot of mess. Their job will be to help me figure out how to stage it to keep the spirit of the action while keeping it possible to set up and tear down in those five extra minutes.

I'm really excited. We're all going to be meeting together this Sunday for lunch and talk about logistics. I think this will be a lot of fun, and the end result will be a really funny piece.
