I have been swamped with nothing but Summer Academy conservatory auditions and casting decisions for the past several days, only breaking at night to go see more theatre performances – and the workload isn’t looking like it will slow down much this week either. I haven’t even had a chance to think about gathering coupons, much less actually going grocery shopping or doing anything non-theatre related for the past week. But I’ll blog about it all at some point in the future, but for now – as of last night – we have officially announced our 2014-2015 Geva Theatre Center season! And it includes three world premieres….by three female playwrights! Geva for the win!!
On our Wilson Mainstage: The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (summer show – conservatory musical), Wait Until Dark (season opener), Good People, A Christmas Carol, Little Shop of Horrors, Women in Jeopardy! (world premiere – written by a playwright who is a Rochester native), The Mountaintop, and Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike.
On our Fielding Nextstage: The 3rd Annual Rochester Fringe Festival, The Festival of New Theatre, Late Night Catechism: ‘Til Death Do Us Part, Katherine’s Colored Lieutenant (world premiere – written by a lovely playwright and actress who has been in residence with us for the past few years writing her play), A Body of Water, and True Home (world premiere – written by another Rochester native – playwright and actress Cass Morgan who is in Bridges of Madison County on Broadway right now).
