Strawdog Theatre Company has announced their 21st anniversary season, which will include works by Karel Capek, Arthur Miller, and Peter Barnes. The season will also feature on-going late night offerings, and mainstage tickets will include free entrance to Strawdog Late Night shows following each regular Friday or Saturday performance.
The season will open with R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots) by Karel Capek, September 18-October 25. Directed by Shade Murray, the play dramatizes the rise of robots over the human race. The second production of the 2008-2009 season will be Arthur Miller's All My Sons, directed by Kimberly Senior, February 19-March 28. One of the most celebrated classics of American drama, this play tells the story of the Keller family, reunited after the war only to uncover the secrets that will tear them apart.
The season will close with Red Noses, April 16-May 23, Peter Barnes' play that is set in the 1300s, when a quarter of Europe is dead from the plague, pestilence is everywhere, and humanity is convinced this is Armageddon. Directed by House Theatre's Matthew Hawkins, the play follows a priest who receives a command from God to gather a group of believers, teach them and send them off into the world to be clowns. Strawdog Late Night features a variety of programming, including live music, comedy, improv, and roasts in the Hugen Hall Cabaret space within the theater.
