about
To me, theater is thrilling because it is a conversation between the audience and the actors. Because we produce comedies, we have that built in barometer of the audience laughing to let us know when we’re on track.
But in a way, it’s even more fun if something goes amiss: a costume malfunctions or an actor spills something onstage, or even when an audience member can’t help themself from shouting out a response, Jerry Springer-style. We’ve all seen it happen, and those magical accidents can result in some of the most honest and humorous moments of all.
Thank you taking part in our pursuit of seriously funny theater this year. Here’s to a happy, healthy and magical 2012!
