First Run Theatre presents Scutter Murphy's Wake

                     
Scutter Murphy’s Wake is the social occasion of the winter in a small Irish village. Mourners from all over the village converge on the home of Scutter’s widow to pay their respects, socialize, explore their own fears and finally, get a free drink at Scutter’s expense. As drink flows freely, the craic is mighty; music, song, ritual and conversation all lead to mishap.  With superstition and alcohol, a strange combination, can this crowd safely get Scutter under the sod?

This 3-day intensive is not a vocal or a musical theater workshop.  Instead it focuses on performance skills needed by singers of any genre who work in front of a live audience. The result is a polished, poised, confident and more mature performer. Young performers discover who they are as individual personalities on stage – without the constraints of playing a role or fitting into a musical, theatrical or choral ensemble.

• Friday July 25, Sat July 26 - 9:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.

ALT will conclude its 80th Anniversary Season with a BIG Musical (just released for Amateur production). 9 TO 5: The Musical will open on Thursday, July 24th and run for eight performances through Sunday, August 3rd. The beloved movie of 1980 was reinvented as a musical on Broadway in 2009, had a National tour through 2011 and is still touring in the UK. Kevin Frakes directs the Musical and boasts enthusiastically about the talented 22 performers dedicating their summer to putting on the show. Michael Frazier is the Musical Director for the show and says he is enjoying the music and lyrics written by Dolly Parton for the movie and her film debut. Audiences will recognize ALT favorites like Jean Heil (in the role of the office tattle tale), but should be delighted by the array of new talent from ages fifteen to sixty. All three of the talented Kuehn brothers (John, Joe and Matt) will appear in the show, appearing together on stage for the first time. Critics called the show " fun and flirty" ...and "perfect summer fare" - SO if you're looking for a little diversion (and the cast hopes you are) then 9 To 5: The Musical will do the trick from 7:30 to 9:30 every performance (2-4pm on Sundays). Tickets for the production are $20 for Adults and $8 for students through college. Call 618-462-6562 for Reservations or go online to  http://www.altonlittletheater.org for on-line purchase.

Mrs. Savage has been left ten million dollars by her husband and wants to make the best use of it, in spite of the efforts of her grown-up stepchildren to get their hands on it. Knowing that the widow's wealth is now in negotiable securities, and seeing they cannot get hold of it, they commit her to a "sanatorium" hoping to "bring her to her senses." In the sanatorium she meets various social misfits and in getting to know them, she realizes that she will find happiness with them and plans to spend the rest of her life as one of them. The dominant mood is high comedy, and the audience is left with a feeling that the neglected virtues of kindness and affection have not been entirely lost in a world that seems motivated at times only by greed and dishonesty.

Stray Dog Theatre’s New Works Laboratory presents FOUR SUGARS
 
The New Works Laboratory at Stray Dog Theatre is pleased to workshop Four Sugars: A New Full-Length Play. Alyse and her gay best friend, Travis, are getting ready to bid adieu to their "fake" marriage of three years and celebrate Alyse having become an official U.S. citizen. Unfortunately, no aspect of their real-life relationships seem to operate as smoothly as their make-shift marriage did. This two-act, contemporary seri-comedy is written by St. Louis Playwright Stephen Peirick, who is the recipient of an Individual Artist Grant from the Regional Arts Commission to help make this fully realized production of Four Sugars a reality.


For MATURE AUDIENCES: Due to adult situations and language, this production may not be appropriate for all ages.  With the New Works Laboratory, the audience, performers and writer all take part in the play development process. The writer creates the script, actors translate the page to the stage and audience members exchange immediate and uncensored reaction to the play, providing all with insight. Playwrights with a unique vision, innovative subject matter, and diverse perspectives are thus given a voice—which otherwise might never be afforded to them in the contemporary world of performing arts.
 
Stray Dog Theatre's New Works Laboratory is free of charge; however, an opportunity to donate toward the evening's production is available. Audience feedback following the show is strongly encouraged through a brief talk-back session, hosted by Gary F. Bell, Stray Dog Theatre's Artistic Director and the Director/Playwright, Stephen Peirick.

Note: No charge for admission. Seating is limited. For Mature Audiences.

August 21 – 23, 2014: Show times are Thursday – Saturday at 8pm. Bark Bar opens at 7:00pm. Theater space opens at 7:30pm.
 
Tickets: Free Event!  Please reserve your complimentary tickets online, through Brown Paper Tickets.
