Produced by Diamond Regional Institute and LytHouse, LLC August: Osage County is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York. THE STORY: A vanished father. A pill-popping mother. Three sisters harboring shady little secrets. When the large Weston family unexpectedly reunites after Dad disappears, their Oklahoman family homestead explodes in a maelstrom of repressed truths and unsettling secrets. Mix in Violet, the drugged-up, scathingly acidic matriarch, and you've got a major new play that unflinchingly—and uproariously—exposes the dark side of the Midwestern American family. Thanks, Joe Fath

Workshop Players Extra Auditions for "The Second Time Around"
by Workshop Players 17 Mar '18

17 Mar '18

Yes, I know we said no more auditions, but it appears that one more time is necessary (or the second time around!) *Monday, March 19; 7 p.m.** - 9 p.m.* *at Workshop Players Theater in Amherst* Needed are 4 males and 4 females of varying ages, 20 - 70. *Production dates: May 3, 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20* Director Dave Stacko propels us back to the early 80s with his choice of *The Second Time Around*. Not only is it the second time around for this script, it is also the second time around for senior citizens Samuel Jonas and Laura Curtis, a widower and a widow who strike up a love affair. The potential loss of social security beneﬁts make living in sin more attractive than tying the knot; that is until their grown children become involved. The erstwhile couples’ offspring are not free of neuroses themselves, shown clearly as they raise their objections to what they perceive to be their parents’ precarious situation. Laughs will abound as this comedy unfolds. Director Dave Stacko provides character descriptions for readings from the script: Samuel Jonas--a widower who is alert, spritely, attractive......in general a nice human being. late 50's to late 60's Laura Curtis--a pleasant, neat, devoted widow, modestly dressed; pleasant to the eye. late 50's to mid 60's Mike Curtis--son of Laura, hard-driving young business, with a nervous stomach. mid 30's to early 40's Cynthia Morse--daughter of Samuel, a suburban matron, neurotic, well-dressed, good looking. early to mid 30's Eleanor Curtis--Mike's wife, the face and smile of an angel; the soul and strength of a tyrant. late 20's to early 30's Dr. Arthur Morse--psychiatrist, husband of Cynthia, son-in-law of Samuel; also a bit neurotic. late 30's to early 40's Bruce Morse--grandson of Samuel, son of Cynthia and Arthur, senior at Columbia; a nice young man with an active libido. early 20's Angela--a Barnard junior, with an angelic look and in a relationship with Bruce. early 20's. *For more information, contact the director at georges_12(a)hotmail.com <georges_12(a)hotmail.com>* -- Workshop Players 44820 Middle Ridge Road, Amherst, OH 44001 Box Office: 440-988-5613 (Box Office hours: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.) contact(a)workshopplayers.com www.workshopplayers.com "If all the world's a stage, I want better lighting!"

Review of "The Late Henry Moss" at none too fragile
by Bob Abelman 17 Mar '18

17 Mar '18

Machismo and menudo blend well in none too fragile’s ‘The Late Henry Moss’ Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics Henry Moss was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. But many of legendary playwright Sam Shepard’s dark and familiar literary staples – ferociously feuding loser brothers, their inability to escape the influence of a dysfunctional father, and a spartanly furnished place in a desolate location with a totemic kitchen appliance, in this case an empty refrigerator – are alive and well in “The Late Henry Moss.” This loaded, later and lesser three-act play by Shepard, which carries just enough substantive weight for a solid one act, is presented in two by none too fragile. And yet, this matters little largely because the characters’ deep-rooted agitation is so realistically and exhilaratingly displayed by every actor. This production is executed with such compelling energy and passion that it is impossible to take your eyes off the stage for even a moment.
