Upcoming
Staged Reading: Of Plays, Politics and Penguins
You're invited to an entertaining afternoon that will see seasoned area actors performing a rehearsed staged reading of four short plays (two of which are comedies, and two of which are more serious in nature). These informal presentations are audience favorites and every one is unique.
Casting call: Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson, Apt 2B
An irreverent, darkly comic modern take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous sleuth and sidekick, "Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson, Apt 2B" is a fast-paced romp that re-examines the world's most famous detective story with a bold new feminist lens. We are looking for both men and women as cast members (30-50 years old), along with costume assistance and a stage manager. Auditions are planned for March 30 from 6 to 8 pm with rehearsals to begin the following week (Tues-Thurs) and performances over two weekends in late May.
Meet Cookie Repp
We’re thrilled to introduce Stage East’s new director, Cookie Repp. Cookie comes from a long background in acting and has become a fast favorite with area performers for her quick wit. She made her directing debut earlier this year with “Brief Encounters: Five short plays” and is excited to be a part of Stage East. Hear from Cookie about what you can expect this year (and what help is needed).
