The Greenroom Players are proud
to announce their upcoming 2006-07 season.
We have an exciting line-up of plays that begins with a children's
readers theater event which includes one of the best known and best loved plays
of all time, shares a serious social drama that examines the core of capital
punishment, and concludes with a classic musical about hope and virtue.
Our first event is
Once Upon a Time.
This fundraiser for the Greenroom players
will be a children's readers theater event. Featured performances will include a
retelling of The True Story of the Three Little Pigs, poems by
Shel Slverstein and Dr. Seuss, and popular children's songs. Admission is three
dollars and a parent or guardian will be admitted free with a child.
Our fall productions is William
Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. The
play tells the story of passion, love, hate, and destiny. We set our version of
the will known story just prior to the Texas revolution. By familiarizing the
work, we hope to draw more people to the incredible power and poetry of
Shakespeare's classic love story.
The third production of the
season will be Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen's compelling work,
The Exonerated.
The play centers
around six people who were convicted of capital crimes and later exonerated by
exculpatory evidence. It is a riveting an important work that examines the role
of crime and punishment in our society. This production will be our entry in the
Texas Community College Speech and Theatre Festival in the spring of 2007.
We conclude our season with Dale Wasserman's well
known musical,
The Man of La Mancha.
This play chronicles the life of novelist and playwright, Miguel de
Cervantes, as he awaits questioning by the Spanish Inquisition. The play
includes such memorable sonds as The Impossible Dream, It's All the Same, and
Little Bird.
