Spotlighters Theatre Presents MONTHS ON END; Special Wine Tasting with Playwright Also Offered

The Audrey Herman Spotlighter's Theatre is presenting the Baltimore premiere of Craig Pospisil's comedy MONTHS ON END through February 4^th. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 PM, Sundays at 2 PM at their

817 Saint Paul Street, Baltimore

space.

 

According to the press release, "we follow the intertwined lives of a circle of friends and family, poised between happiness and heartbreak. Phoebe and Ben, who are engaged to be married, but have some doubts. Even so, Elaine is jealous of her friends' relationship, since none of hers last more than five dates. She's ready to give up on love until she meets Walter, whose only flaw may be that he's married. Walter's brother, Nick, is single, but when he proposes to Paige, his girlfriend, on a beach her answer is to scream and drop the engagement ring. Heidi, Phoebe's sister, delivers a comic gem of a commencement address in May that starts off as a tribute to the graduates' parents, but degenerates. Phoebe's wedding day meltdown isn't helped by her father, who, trying to calm her fears, tells her to "Pretend you're in a plane that's crashing ... " W alter and Nick battle hilariously in July over what they find sexy about women. As the year draws to a close, a fight over the Beatles threatens to break-up Ben and Phoebe, but a death bonds them more strongly together. The funny and touching December scene finds Walter and Nick still as different as siblings can be, but finally united by their failed relationships. The diverse scenes and characters in this winning play come together to create a delightful theatrical experience."

 

The cast includes HanaLyn Colvin, Nikki Cimino, Kristen Zwobot, Tiffany James, Greg Freitag, Brett Rohrer, Tony Hodge, Jason Farrell, Ann Marie, and Jonathan Claiborne. The play is written by Craig Pospisil, directed by Bob Russell and Shane Logue and features sets by Tim Fowler, lighting Andrew Packard and stage management by Lindsay Balcar.
