An actor and a director respectively, they both develop, write and edit the pieces they make together. The creative process differs according to subject matter but the lens through which they view the theatrical medium makes for unique, energetic, imaginative performative experiences. Together they created the stage piece, AN ILIAD, over a period of 5 years, utilizing video, video transcriptions, improvisation, original music, and diligent research. Their latest work, The GOOD BOOK, examines faith and the creation of the Christian bible over centuries, and is currently running at Berkeley Repertory Theatre. They are also working on a commission from the McCarter Theatre in Princeton called THE SONG OF ROME, which is a solo for a female performer, and picks up where AN ILIAD leaves off, with the destruction of Troy, and follows Aeneas through the founding of Rome, examining the idea of government and empire, both the rise and the fall.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Rachel Bliss, Starlight Theatre [email protected] 816-997-1151-office 785-259-3039-cell A Comedy Revolution Comes to Starlight Indoors This Winter Playing November 5-17 only! “SMART, SILLY AND “SPAMILTON IS SO “THE NEXT BEST THING CONVULSIVELY FUNNY” INFECTIOUSLY FUN THAT IT TO SEEING HAMILTON!” - The New York Times COULD EASILY RUN AS LONG - New York Post AS ITS INSPIRATION!” – The Hollywood Reporter KANSAS CITY, Mo. – As the weather cools off, the stage house heats up with the 2019-20 Starlight Indoors series, sponsored by the Missouri Lottery. Now in its fifth season, this year’s lineup of hilarious Off-Broadway hits opens November 5-17 with the North American tour of Spamilton: An American Parody, making its Kansas City premiere.

Created by Gerard Alessandrini, the comic mastermind behind the long-running hit Forbidden Broadway, which played the 2017-18 Starlight Indoors series, Spamilton: An American Parody is a side-splitting new musical parody based on a blockbuster hit of a similar name.

  • The Coast of Utopia: Voyage & Shipwreck
    SHOTGUN PLAYERS PRESENT The Coast of Utopia: Voyage & Shipwreck Written by Tom Stoppard Directed by Patrick Dooley Berkeley—In a tremendous coup for the biggest little theatre company in town, Shotgun Players has secured the rights to Tom Stoppard’s impressive trilogy. This season Shotgun is producing Part Two: Shipwreck, along with a few special performances of Part One: Voyage, in repertory. In Voyage, we met our young heroes in the first blushes of revolutionary thought and love. Now with Shipwreck we find them in their 30s. The optimism of their early years has hit the rocks of marital infidelity, social anarchy, and a Tsar that has no intention of stepping down. The stakes go up dramatically in this next great duel between the heart and mind. The Coast of Utopia begins performances March 20 and runs through May 5th at The Ashby Stage. Stoppard’s riff on pre-revolutionary Russia begins on a family estate where fervent ideals and fraught expectations are the name of the game. In Voyage, the first part of the amazing Coast of Utopia trilogy, we meet a fervent group of artists, writers and young revolutionaries wrestling with broken hearts along with ideas of art and society: "If something true can be understood about art, something will be understood about liberty, too." Just on the horizon is the hope of revolution. With Shipwreck the story moves to Paris. A circle of Russian émigrés including Alexander and Natalie Herzen, Ivan Turgenev, and Michael Bakunin have relocated to France, seeking inspiration from this birthplace of revolution. Yet both personal and political ideals begin to unravel.
