BE EMPOWERED. 989.401.1700 | BoudoirbyJeff.com DIRECTOR’S NOTE There have been a lot of changes happening all around us. The idea of going outside of our homes is a matter of life and death. Going to the grocery store is a risk. Thankfully it’s become a significantly less risk due to a combination of mask wearing, social distancing, and becoming more of a caring community for others. However, the isolation we have endured has forced us to examine ourselves; specifically, what haunts us. This is why I am so excited to be presenting you Rogues’ Gallery by John Patrick Shanley. This collection of characters is twisted in its own shape and form. However twisted it is, there is a sense of humanity. Getting to work with talented actors who could explore humanity truthfully, and honestly, has made my job very easy. I couldn’t thank them enough for jumping on this fast, crazy drive. The production team has been a blast to work with, and I thank them for working and sharing their art with me. Lastly, thank you to all the audience members for watching this and buying a ticket. By deciding to watch this show, you are actively paying to continue letting artists express themselves in the city of Saginaw. Take the moment to escape in these bizarre characters, because after what we’ve all experienced this past year we have earned an escape. Jonah Conner, Director 13 ROGUES’ GALLERY THE CAST in Alphabetical Order: Abby Burgess Rustin Myers Colorgio Romello Pit & Balcony chose to produce Rogues’ Gallery in part because of John Patrick Shanley’s generous decision to donate all of his proceeds from the sale and licensing of this script to the Actors Fund. The Actors Fund fosters stability and resiliency and provides a safety net for performing arts and entertainment professionals over their lifespan. Pit & Balcony is proud to be a part of the efforts to support artists and entertainment professionals now more than ever. Thank you for joining us!
