"If you like 'Waiting for Godot' you will love Lower Ninth!"

-The Midnight Writer
*
*
*
*
*
*“Lower Ninth” features top-notch acting and universal themes of*
*
*
* regret and connectedness that will resonate with people from all walks *
*
*
*of life." *
*
*
*-Marjorie Preston, Sun Press*

*
*

*"Lower Ninth" *finds two men and a corpse stranded on a roof in New
Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. E-Z is a rebellious young man. Malcolm is
a reformed addict who has found strength through religion. Sharing the roof
with them is the corpse of Lowboy.  Over the course of two stultifying days
in the sun, Malcolm and E-Z must battle heat, hunger, their pasts and each
other.

*
*

*“Lower Ninth”* is an exploration of faith, survival and mutual redemption.
  Willimon’s work is sharp and cutting. Its wild air of apocalypse is
replete with Old Testament prophets and the raising of the dead.



The production is directed by Ensemble’s artistic director Celeste
Cosentino.  Now in her second year as artistic director, Celeste chose the
Willimon work because of its immediacy in our memory, the recent tragedy of
a city destroyed in a biblical deluge, and the devastation of human lives
it leaves in its wake. The cast of the Ensemble Production includes William
Clarence Marshall*, Joseph Primes, and J’Vaughn T. Briscoe (*Member of
Actor’s Equity Association). *“Lower Ninth” *is being performed in
Ensemble’s new home in the former Coventry School, 2843 Washington Blvd. in
Coventry Village.

* *

“Who knew the submerged houses of New Orleans would be so artistically
inspiring?  Few modern plays are so completely theatrical. Even in the
silence, the show feels alive…..it gives power to a desperate kind of hope.
By the moving conclusion, which can be read as either joyous or futile, we
are offered another way to think about the darkness.”**

* - VARIETY*

*“Lower Ninth”* *final 4 performances  8pm on Thursday Feb 16,* *Friday
February 17th, Saturday February 18th and 2pm on Sunday, February 19**th**.*
