NEW PLAY FESTIVAL AT CLT

Oct. 28th, 2009

Theatre Workshop, the Colonial Little Theatre playwrights group, announced its New Play Festival of staged readings will take place during November and December.

"Past and Present Tense," a three-act drama by Richard Romano of Saratoga Springs, will be presented Nov. 13 and 14 at 8 p.m. Jack Dowd director.

"Getting the Business," a two-act farce by Victor Cahn of Saratoga Springs, will be presented Nov. 20 and 21 at 8 p.m. Victor Cahn director.

"Prospect Trace," a two-act drama by Serge Patentreger of Albany, will presented Dec. 4 and 5 at 8 p.m. Cheryl Charbonneau director.

"Past and Present Tense" has a Christmas theme. It is Christmas Eve, and thirty-something Daniel Harper is about to become a father for the first time. He hopes the birth of his child will help reunite him and his estranged brother Kevin, their parents "golden child," who abruptly and mysteriously stormed out of their life one Christmas morning 20 years earlier. As both brothers plan to meet again, they each reminisce about the events of the past -- and wonder what they mean for the future.

"Getting the Business" is described by the author as "a civilized farce." An advertising executive with more on his mind than work is confronted by a vivacious young assistant with an agenda of her own.

Admission to all performances is by donation. Reservations are not required. For further information: Wally Truesdell, 725-3886, or wtruesdell@nycap.rr.com
