Gingold Theatrical Group's PROJECT SHAW presented THE SHEWING-UP OF BLANCO POSNET – a cowboy comedy by George Bernard Shaw – on Monday, December 19 at The Players Club in Manhattan. David Staller produced and directed. BroadwayWorld was there and brings you photo coverage below!
Now in its sixth sold-out year, Gingold Theatrical Group's PROJECT SHAW made history in December 2009 as the first company ever to present every play (including full-length works, one-acts and sketches) written by George Bernard Shaw.
THE SHEWING-UP OF BLANCO POSNET is Shaw's cowboy mystery/comedy that takes place in the Wild Old American West. The town is ready to hang Blanco Posnet as a horse thief before a mysterious stranger appears.
The evening also featured a short Shaw rarity: PASSION PLAY – Shaw's unfinished first attempt at playwriting. Never before performed in New York, his very short play is about Jesus, Judas and the whole gang, but with a distinctly unusual Shavian perspective.
The cast included Daphne Rubin-Vega (RENT, ANNA IN THE TROPICS), Andre De Shields (THE FULL MONTY, AIN'T MISBEHAVIN'), Ty Jones (ENRON), Wilson Jermaine Heredia (LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, RENT), Sharon Washington (THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS), Time Out New York journalist Adam Feldman, Nick Corley (MARY POPPINS), Cheryl Freeman (THE CIVIL WAR), Nora Chester,
MaryLee Martin, Panchali Null (RAGTIME), Daryl Lathon, Ariel Estrada (SHOGUN MACBETH), James Rana (SHOGUN MACBETH), and Diane Stilwell Weinberg, with Susan Aquila on the fiddle.
