The May 19th premiere of Republic Undone is right around the corner. Last year Republic For Which We Stand
at Castleton sold out in pre-sales. Many disappointed people were
turned away at the door. Don't wait till the last minute to get your
tickets!
The premiere has been moved
to 7 PM at Castleton Theater on Saturday evening May 19th, with the DC evening performance moved to 7:30 PM at Keegan Theatre on Tuesday, May 22nd. Metropolitan Club performance still May 23rd at
6pm.
Table reads of John Henry's latest play have already received glowing praise:
"The
weaving of historical fact, humor, serious message, and entertainment
is masterful. Haven't seen anything
like it--certainly not anything that's relevant to policy issues today.
The debate between Woodrow and Bryan is authentic drama; and the
negotiation with Lloyd George and Clemenceau is tragedy, though leavened
with wit. Most of the content will be new even to the historically
well-informed."
Republic Undone is
directed by Rick Davis, Professor and Dean of the College of Visual and
Performing Arts at George Mason University. An enthusiast for citizen
theater, Davis has worked with the Stone Hill Theatrical Foundation for
five years. The citizen playwright, citizen actors, and citizen director
celebrate the tradition of ancient Greece when theater was invented to
address issues of
the day.
