So, casting has been announced for Barksdale Theatre at Hanover Tavern's production of
Greater Tuna. It is directed by Joe Pabst, whom you may remember as Lumiere in Theatre IV's production of
Disney's Beauty and the Beast at the historic Empire Theatre. He was most recently seen in Barksdale's critically-acclaimed production of
Moonlight and Magnolias (directed by Steve Perigard, and also featuring David Bridgewater, Scott Wichmann, and Joy Williams). His directing prowess was most recently displayed in
The Odd Couple at Barksdale Theatre at Hanover Tavern.
I also saw the production of Stephen Sondheim and James Goldman's
Follies at Dogwood Dell in 2006. Really fantastic director! And I'm so excited to get to work with him!
The
Greater Tuna cast stars Joe Inscoe and Billy Christopher Maupin! I'm so excited!
So, the reason I write all this on the Theatre IV blog, is the let you know that the "An Actor Prepares..." series that started here during
Rumpelstiltskin's Daughter will be continued soon (or resurrected, perhaps I should say) on the Barksdale Buzz following the work in
Greater Tuna. YAY!
The play is absolutely hysterical! You should definitely check it out! You can find more information on the
Barksdale website's Tuna page. And you can order tickets by calling the Barksdale box office at 282-2620 or online
here.
