SUMMER
TWO FANTASTIC SHOWS ARE ON THEIR WAY TO YOU- AS WE SPEAK!
First up...
TAI SHARM AND THE KING, No Nude Men's 2009 contribution to this year's theater festival. Actually a fragment of Stuart Bousel's in-progress adaptation of GIANT BONES, a novel by Peter "The Last Unicorn" S. Beagle, this 30 minute fairy tale tells the story of Tai-Sharm (Ashley Cowan) a beautiful and intelligent peasant girl who is raised by her mother (Syri Mongiello) to believe that she is stupid- for her own benefit. After she is kidnapped by an evil court adviser (Wylie Herman) to be married off to a chronically depressed king (Christopher P. Kelly) she develops a romantic relationship with a magical fish (Matt Gunnison) and the world's greatest thief (James Tinsley) that may yet save her from a lifetime of glamorous despair. Narrated by Kendra Arimoto and Chantal Benson and featuring the acting debut of Leo Mikulich.
The show happens at the Waterfall Stage, at 12:20 PM in the Yerba Buena Gardens and, like the rest of the festival, is absolutely FREE! It all happens on Sunday, July 26th. You can even stick around for a 3:25 preview of...
THE FROGS
Stuart Bousel heads back to the woods this summer to collaborate with Atmostheatre/Theater In The Woods on a new adaptation of Aristophanes' classic tale of Dionysus, the god of wine and theater (Nathan Tucker), his down-trodden slave Xanthias (Warden Lawlor) and their road trip to Hades to find a poet worthy of saving the arts. Will they go with classical and high-browed Aeschylus (Carl Lucania) or edgy and subversive Euripedes (Ben Fisher)? Will Xanthias score with Persephone's dippy handmaiden (Theresa Miller) or will he end up getting spanked by an over-zealous Hecate (Tristan Cunningham) who is out for vengeance on a naughty Hercules (Sam Leichter). Featuring Katarina Fabic as the Queen of the Dead with Xanadu Bruggers, Victor Carrion, Julia Heitner and Jessica Rudholm as a chorus of singing frogs and the three-headed dog Cerberus as himself, the play will take place in multiple locations throughout a beautiful redwood preserve in Woodside, California.
Tickets are on sale now ($10-20) and we highly recommend getting tickets early as we often sell out our shows in advance.
