It's pretty exciting. To be a witness to creation, to see something entirely new.
So the fact that we get to present the first performances of Stella Ferra's new play
All The Frozen Ones is a theatrical treat!
The play has been in development this year as part of the MAC Theater Playwrights Incubator (MTPI) and this premiere represents a milestone in the play's development.
We invite you to attend one of the three performances of the play: May 9,10,11 - curtain is at 7:30 at the MAC. As part of @artweeksouthcoast ArtWeek SouthCoast we have specially priced tickets $8. Tickets at Marionartcenter.org/ArtWeek SouthCoast
Synopsis: After cryogenically freezing his wife who’s inherited her mother’s degenerative disease, Robert decides to unfreeze her on the eve of his 59th birthday. He is haunted by her illness that led her to be frozen, their now 30 year age gap, and a mysterious knocking sound — What happens when Marian thaws?
To deepen your experience we offer an optional, informal discussion/Q&A session with the mentors, director, actors, and playwright following each performance. If you are a student of theater, this is a valuable contribution to your understanding of the creative process.
We are also part of the Massachusetts Card to Culture program through the Mass Cultural Council. Give us a call if you qualify and we'll set you up with tickets.
