From Awkward Spaces: The Story of the Bartell and the Journey to Permanence
by Brendon Smith & Suzan Kurry. August 17-19, 2017.
Directed by John Jajewski
An original play about the Bartell Theatre’s history. Six local theatre groups, who have been producing plays in whatever space they can find, unite to create a permanent home. Being led by a retiree who likes a challenge, they quickly learn there’s more drama in building a stage than performing on it.
THIS IS A BARTELL THEATRE FUNDRAISING EVENT!
** In honor of the 20th Anniversary season of the Bartell, a donor has agreed to match up to $150,000 in funds raised toward an endowment fund. Profits from this show will be matched by that donor!! **
On the Drury stage
