Morris, and Janice Paran. Four of the authors (Miller, Sublett, Maher, and Morris) interviewed their parents about their relationships. The play is based on those interviews. The play is a charming, heartbreaking, and hilarious account of each relationship, looking at how they met, got married, and eventually divorced, and the events in between. “In YOU BETTER SIT DOWN the truth about these four defunct marriages is laid bare with simplicity and honesty” – The New Your Times “Relentlessly entertaining” – The New Yorker “Wryly entertaining…absorbingly candid.” – The Village Voice What the critics say about this play: In the original production, the four children presented their parents’ stories, portraying the parents. Our actors will be doing the same. Natalya Duncan plays Caitlin Miller and her mother Mary Anne; Conner Sutton plays Robbie Collier Sublett and his mother Janet; Lisa Georges plays Jennifer Morris and her mother Beverly; and Samuel Roter plays Matthew Morris and his parents John and Frinde. For more information about the cast and upcoming shows, follow us on Facebook. The production is directed by D.

Acclaimed as a modern dramatic masterpiece, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead puts the spotlight on two of Shakespeare's minor characters as they wrestle with fundamental, pressing questions of identity, loss, fate, friendship, and the absurdity of existence. As they hurtle towards their imminent demise, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern unlock what it means to be truly alive. Character Breakdown * The roles of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern have been precast. And will be played by Brian McNally and Patrick Ciamacco A dynamic ensemble of performers to bring to life the characters of Stoppard's brilliant tragicomedy, including the versatile troupe of Tragedians who will also appear as The Players, Hamlet, Claudius, Gertrude, Polonius, Ophelia, Horatio, pirates, courtiers, and others. None of these roles are gender-fixed. Actors of all ages, gender identities, and ethnicities are encouraged to audition. Rosencrantz: is caught in a world he doesn't understand, never quite grasping the stakes, the rules, or the meaning behind the events around him. His simplicity provides contrast to Guildenstern's existential questioning. (This role has been cast and will be played by Brian McNally.) Guildenstern: struggles to find meaning and control in a seemingly senseless world. His constant analysis of fate, death, and identity forms the intellectual backbone of the play. (This role has been cast and will be played by Patrick Ciamacco.) The Player: embodies the idea that all of life is performance. His/Her comfort with illusion and death stands in stark contrast to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern's confusion and fear. Tragedians: are members of the Player's troupe. Their presence blurs the line between acting and reality. They enact scenes that mirror the fate awaiting Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Tragedians will double as other characters in the play, including Claudius, Gertrude, Ophelia, and Polonius. Hamlet: is the mysterious, erratic, and philosophical Prince of Denmark. A former classmate of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Claudius: (doubles as Tragedian) is the regal, manipulative, and composed King of Denmark. He gives orders to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to spy on Hamlet, sparking their journey. Gertrude: (doubles as Tragedian) is the polite, concerned Queen of Denmark. She echoes her husband's concern for Hamlet's behavior but appears distant from the two title characters. Polonius: (doubles as Tragedian) is the verbose, pompous advisor to Claudius. Ophelia: (doubles as Tragedian) is the tragic, silent love interest of Hamlet and daughter to Polonius. Other characters: include Horatio, the Ambassador, Pirates, Seamen, Courtiers, and Soldiers.
