Join CP for the 3rd Pub Reading in our summer series - "Anton in Show Business," by Jane Martin.
Beth Terranova directs seven lovely ladies in the July reading of Anton in Show Business by Jane Martin. The winner of the 2001 American Theatre Critics Steinberg New Play Award, this madcap comedy follows three actresses across the footlights and down the rabbit hole to a strangely familiar Wonderland that looks a lot like American theatre. As these women pursue their dream of performing Chekhov’s Three Sisters in Texas, they’re whisked through a maelstrom of “good ideas” that pepper the process of producing a play. In the tradition of great backstage comedies, Anton in Show Business conveys the joys, pains, and absurdities of “putting on a play” in the new millenium.
Featuring Michelle Bruno, Andrea Elward, Laurel Kenney, Karen Lambert, Kaelynn Miller, Shirley Panek, and Theresa Riffle, this play within a play within a play will make you laugh, cry, and laugh again.
Stop by and enjoy theatre in a congenial atmosphere. Comedy and drinks...what more do you need to get over the Sunday Night Blues? No minimum, no cover, just fun!
These readings are very popular, so you may want to get there early to guarantee a seat, but they are short enough that you can stand and still enjoy them.
