Photo Flash: First Look at Seanachai Theatre Company's IN PIGEON HOUSE
In Pigeon House by Honor Molloy is now playing through November 18th, 2012 at the Den Theatre (1333 N. Milwaukee Avenue) in Chicago. Get a first look at the show with the production photos below.
Juxtaposed against the contemporary drug-fueled club scene in Dublin, In Pigeon House weaves together vaudeville, music hall, and cinema in this love letter to traveling shows. Moving between time and genres, the itinerant players Basher, Masher, Rasher and Dolly rip up the stage with a furious tornado of language and Moving Pictures. A startlingly theatrical and darkly comic oeuvre, In Pigeon House at once explodes and upholds the romantic myth of the wandering player.
In Pigeon House's cast includes Ensemble actors Ira Amyx and Barbara Figgins. Amyx received Jeff nominations for his work in Seanachaí's productions of That Was Then (Supporting actor) and A Moon for the Misbegotten (Co-scenic designer with Merje Veski). John Mossman, who directed Figgins in Seanachaí's The Shadow of a Gunman, rounds out the cast along with Katherine Schwartz.
Design team includes Paul Loesel (Original Music Composition), Patrick McGee (Scenic and Properties Design), Garvin Jellison (Lighting), Beth Laske-Miller (Costumes and Make-up), Mark Comiskey (Video Designer), Ian Garrett (Sound and Engineering Designer), Susan Gosdick (Dialect Coach), Ashley Irons (Properties Master), Andrew Blendermann (Pianist and Musical Consultant), Andra Velis Simon (Vocal Coach), Jeri Frederickson (Dramaturgy), Erin Diener (Production Stage Manager), and Anna Lafontant (Stage Manager).
