Finally got a cast photo of The Tale of the Allergist's Wife posted on the lineup. Upcoming events, if anyone's in the mood for live theater:



City Circle is performing Psycho Beach Party, which was written by the same guy who did the Tale of the Allergist's Wife. It's got graphic language and some sexual content, so it's not one for the kids. But if the writing is as good as Allergist, it should be incredibly funny. I know a few cast members, and they always turn out stellar performances. It's running August 6, 7, 8, 12, 13 and 14. All performances at 8:00 pm, except Sunday, August 8 at 2:30 pm. Due to my rehearsal and other schedules, the only one I'll be able to catch is the 7th, but I am definitely planning on going.



Dreamwell is doing Glengarry Glen Ross on September 10, 11, 17, & 18. The cast is cool, I worked with many of the guys in Rosenstrasse. It's a great show, but be prepared to hear the f-bomb about 150 times, among other things.



City Circle is doing Metamorphoses, an adaptation of Ovid's myths acted entirely in the Coralville pool. That's my show, do be prepared to be bored stiff hearing about this in the future - it's going to be sooo cool though! We run on September 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, & 19, all at 8:00 pm.



Iowa City Community Theatre will be rocking with Little Shop of Horrors September 24, 25 & 26, and October 1, 2, 3, 8, 9 and 10. All Friday and Saturday shows are at 8:00 and the Sunday matinees are at 2:30. Jeff Shields (who directed Father of the Bride) says that the auditions for this puppy sounded almost broadway quality, he's really proud of the cast he's put together.
