WE ARE OPEN!

Three years of planning.

18 months of writing and rewriting.

Three weeks of rehearsal.

Ladies and gentlemen, the curtain is up on This Untoward Generation!  Opening night on Saturday, August 10th started with a full house and ended with a standing ovation.  Sunday's matinee brought the weekend to a close with an exciting talkback with our second audience.  The production is now on hiatus until September 5th, when we'll begin a 5-show closing weekend.  Reserve your seats today!

Thanks to all who helped make this show a reality!  Sending lots of love in your direction.

A BIG Thank You!

My files are filled with helpful feedback from friends who spent the last 18 months helping me polish this script.  THANK YOU to all those who read through earlier drafts and offered their thoughts.  This has been a team effort!

Final Rehearsal!

The cast is in for their final rehearsal with director Cory Johnson!

Yes, it's bittersweet....but we're looking forward to that full house tonight!

We've still got a few seats open for Sunday's 2:00 matinee.  Reserve your spot now!

A burnt intellectual and an eager young seminarian crash minds at a city park in TUG!'s closing vignette.
