Readers Theater

 
The Seven Angels Theatre Turn Up The Volume! series presents Sideman by Warren Leight on April 17
An atmospheric and deeply personal memory play, Sideman is set in 1953 and travels through three decades. The story is told by Clifford, the only son of Gene, a talented but self-absorbed jazz trumpeter and his alcoholic wife Terry. As their marriage slowly dissolves, young Clifford is witness to it all. Alternating between their New York apartment and a smoke-filled music club, Clifford narrates the story of his broken family and the decline of jazz as popular entertainment at the dawn of the age of rock-and-roll.
Winner of the 1999 Tony Award for Best Play, and Pulitzer Prize finalist.

Playhouse on Park presents GO, DOG, GO! Based on the book by P.D. Eastman on April 7 - 15
A veritable canine cabaret, this beloved children's book comes to life filled with acrobatics, music and physical comedy. These dogs – played by six agile actors – celebrate the many joys and challenges of life and friendship. The show takes the spirit of the book and brings it to life with a joyful and genuine intention that both children and adults will appreciate. The beauty of this story is that it provides an opportunity for adults to reconnect to the magic of childlike wonder and children to enjoy a story that celebrates youthful exuberance – and youthful frustrations – in a completely relatable manner.
