Parallel Lives: The Kathy & Mo Show
October 14 - 30, 2004
By Mo Gaffney & Kathy Najimy
Directed by Adam Arthur
A vaudeville act with a feminist twist, two actresses play men and women
struggling through the common rituals of modern life - transforming themselves
into matrons, schoolgirls, and even a few guys. Parallel Lives
re-examines the ongoing quest to find parity and love in a contest handicapped
by capricious Gods - or in this case, Goddesses.
The Santaland Diaries
December 1- 18, 2004
By David Sedaris, adapted for the stage by Joe Mantello
Directed by Andrew Gall
We're bringing out our thoroughbred for another run – Jesse Benz and
Andrew Gall will re-team to continue a 35below holiday tradition. A sardonic
comedy, The Santaland Diaries follows a Macy's department store
elf throughout the duration of the Christmas season. Full of dry insights,
Sedaris comments on the best and the worst of people and culture during
the holiday season.
Limonade Tous les Jours
*NC Premiere*
February 3 - 19, 2005
By Charles Mee
Directed by Jess Wells
A multimedia portrait of a love affair between an American man and a
younger Parisian woman. Written as poetry, it also uses film, music, visual
art, dance, and theatre to describe the phases of the affair.
Someone Who'll Watch Over Me
April 7 - 23, 2005
By Frank McGuinness
Directed by Deborah Austin
A drama that explores the life of the political hostage and confronts
Western and Arab social tensions. The playwright is careful not to dwell
on the characters' imprisonment, instead focusing on the universal human
relationships between the prisoners. The tragedy of a life in a Lebanese
prison cell is heightened by contrasting moments of laughter, imagination,
and friendship.
