SUMMARY:L.A. Theatre Work’s The Mountaintop
DESCRIPTION:On the evening of April 4\, 1968\, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated outside room 306 of The Lorraine Motel in Memphis. What happened inside room 306 the night before the killing is a mystery. In her internationally acclaimed play\, The Mountaintop\, playwright Katori Hall fantasizes what may have transpired in the overnight hours between  the legendary civil rights leader and a seemingly inconsequential hotel maid. \nWinner of the prestigious Olivier Award for Best New Play\, The Mountaintop is rife with humor and political jabs\, while giving us a glimpse at the human side of Martin Luther King Jr. Hours after his famed final speech\, punctuated by the immortal line\, “I’ve been to the mountaintop\,” the celebrated Reverend reveals his hopes\, regrets\, and fears\, creating a masterful bridge between mortality  and immortality. In 2018\, America and the world marks the 50th anniversary of the death of Martin Luther  King  Jr.\,  yet\,  struggles  to resolve racial tension remain a challenge for communities everywhere. \nThe Mountaintop premiered in London in 2009 and subsequently ran on Broadway starring Angela Bassett and Samuel L. Jackson. \nThe Mountaintop contains some mature language. \n“It is a relationship that is breathtaking\, hilarious\, and heart-stopping in its exchanges\, and in its speedy ability to reveal character and pull the audience into the ring.” \n– The Independent\, London \n************** \nUnder the leadership of Producing Director\, Susan Albert Loewenberg\, L.A. Theatre Works (LATW) has been the foremost radio theater company in the United States for four decades. L.A. Theatre Works is broadcast weekly in America on public radio stations\, daily in China on the Radio Beijing Network\, streamed online at www.latw.org and programs are aired internationally on the BBC\, CBC\, and many other English language networks. LATW has single-handedly brought the finest recorded dramatic literature into the homes of millions. On the road\, LATW has delighted audiences with its unique live radio theater style performances in over 300 small towns and major cities\, including New York\, Boston\, San Francisco\, Washington and Chicago\, Beijing and Shanghai. An L.A. Theatre Works performance is immediate\, spontaneous\, and features a first-rate cast\, live sound effects\, and a connection to the audience rarely felt in a traditional theater setting. This theater… is an event. \nMore information: www.latw.org \n

SUMMARY:Young Marx
DESCRIPTION:Rory Kinnear (The Threepenny Opera\, Penny Dreadful\, Othello) is Marx and Oliver Chris (Twelfth Night\, Green Wing) is Engels\, in this new comedy written by Richard Bean and Clive Coleman. Broadcast live from The Bridge Theatre\, London\, the production is directed by Nicholas Hytner and reunites the creative team behind Broadway and West End hit comedy One Man\, Two Guvnors. \n1850\, and Europe’s most feared terrorist is hiding in Dean Street\, Soho. Broke\, restless and horny\, the thirty-two-year-old revolutionary is a frothing combination of intellectual brilliance\, invective\, satiric wit\, and child-like emotional illiteracy. \nCreditors\, spies\, rival revolutionary factions and prospective seducers of his beautiful wife all circle like vultures. His writing blocked\, his marriage dying\, his friend Engels in despair at his wasted genius\, his only hope is a job on the railway. But there’s still no one in the capital who can show you a better night on the piss than Karl Heinrich Marx. \nRun Time: 220 Minutes

SUMMARY:Reduced Shakespeare Company’s All the Great Books (abridged)
DESCRIPTION:Little Dickens. Short Longfellow. Reduced Proust… All the Great Books. As anyone named Cliff will tell you\, Less is More. The Literary Canon explodes as the bad boys of abridgement again unleash comic outrage on an unsuspecting public. America’s best loved comedy troupe takes you on a 98 minute roller- coaster ride through its compact compendium of 89 of the world’s great books in All The Great Books (abridged). It’s 1.1 books per minute (on average). Confused by Confucius? Thrown by Thoreau? Wish Swift was faster? Aiming for an ace of Tennyson? Then hop aboard and buckle up as the three cultural guerrillas of the Reduced Shakespeare Company zip through everything you should have read in school but probably didn’t. It’s a blast of bibliography. You’ve seen their PBS special. You’ve heard them on National Public Radio. They are officially London’s longest-running comedy troupe\, and have broken box-office records at the Kennedy Center\, Seattle Repertory Theatre\, and the Pittsburgh Public Theatre. What are you waiting for? Tempus fugit! Reductio ad absurdum. \nIn the spirit of Shakespeare himself\, RSC shows contain some occasional bawdy language and mild innuendo. All children (and parents) are different\, so we’ve chosen to rate our shows PG- 13: Pretty Good If You’re Thirteen. \nWhat the Critics Say… \n“Inspired lunatics! Funny\, funny show… Brilliant!” \n~ The Charlotte Observer \n“Raucously funny! Inspired\, crazed ridiculousness!” ~ The Buffalo News \n“Literature’s greatest hits condensed into a 90-minute roller-coaster ride of hilarity.” ~ The Atlanta Journal Constitution \n“Verbally dexterous and physically agile. The show darts from satire to silliness to sophisticated irreverence.” ~ The Boston Globe \n“…come see how three accomplished performers can turn your literary ignorance into a polished evening’s entertainment.” ~ The Seattle Times \n“Intertextuality can rarely have felt so frantic or so funny.” ~ The Scotsman\, Edinburgh \nWebsite: www.reducedshakespeare.com \n

SUMMARY:National Theatre Live: Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead (Broadcast Live in HD)
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter\, The Woman in Black)\, Joshua McGuire (The Hour) and David Haig (Four Weddings and a Funeral\, The Witness for the Prosecution) star in Tom Stoppard’s brilliantly funny situation comedy\, broadcast live from The Old Vic theatre in London. David Leveaux’s new production marks the 50th anniversary of the play that made a young Tom Stoppard’s name overnight. Against the backdrop of Hamlet\, two hapless minor characters\, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern\, take centre stage.  As the young double act stumble their way in and out of the action of Shakespeare’s iconic drama\, they become increasingly out of their depth as their version of the story unfolds.

SUMMARY:You’re A Good Man\, Charlie Brown
DESCRIPTION:Dates: 6/23: 2pm & 8pm;  6/24: 2pm & 8pm;  6/25: 3pm;  6/30: 2pm & 8pm;  7/1: 2pm & 8pm; 7/2: 3pm \nShadow Lawn Stage\, the professional theatre of Monmouth University\, will present the 50th anniversary production of the enchanting musical\, You’re A Good Man\, Charlie Brown this June with 10 performances at the historic Woods Theatre on the university’s campus. Based on the famed comic strip “Peanuts” by Charles Schulz\, the musical tells the story of some typical days in the life of Charlie Brown. From running after the school bus to spying the cute little red-haired girl at lunch\, Charlie deals with the fun and frustrations of life with his friends Lucy\, Linus and Schroeder; his kid sister Sally; and his faithful companion\, Snoopy. The original production featured Gary Burghoff (Radar in the MASH series). The 1999 revival won 2 Tony Awards – for Roger Bart as Snoopy and Kristen Chenoweth as Sally –  and the Drama Desk award for “Best Revival of a Musical”. \nThe songs of the show\, written by Clark Gesner\, reveal the dreams and goals of the characters: Lucy explores her feelings for Schroeder while he plays Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata” (“it’s always been my dream that I’d marry a man that plays the piano”); Linus sings and dances with his security blanket in “My Blanket and Me”\, and even Snoopy sings the praises of his favorite time of day in “Suppertime!”  For the revival\, Andrew Lippa added a new song that had Sally searching for “A New Philosophy” (is it “Why are you telling me?” or “I can’t stand it!”?)  As the day comes to a close\, the whole gang reflects on the things that bring them “Happiness”.Directed by Maurice J. Moran\, the Shadow Lawn production features a range of actors: professional members of Actors’ Equity Association\, MU students and alumni\, and new rising stars.
