Photo Flash: First Look at Joby Earle in THE PUPPETMASTER OF LODZ
By: BWW News Desk Jun. 22, 2012
The Puppetmaster of Lodz by Gilles Ségal, translated by Sara O'Connor and directed by Brian Roff, opened Berkshire Theatre Group's Theatre Festival season at The Unicorn Theatre, on June 21. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the production photos below.
The cast includes Joby Earle as Finkelbaum, Lee Sellars as opov/Spencer/Weissfeld/Weissman, Julia Gibson as the Concierge and Jesse Hinson as Schwartzkopf; with set design by Jason Simms, costume design by Antonia Ford-Roberts, lighting design by Japhy Weideman and sound design by Scott Killian.
A Jewish man has escaped from one of the most notorious concentration camps in Germany only to be yet again imprisoned in an imaginary world. Herr Finkelbaum weaves a story of longing, while caring for his beloved puppets and clinging to a lost reality. Try as he might to create a world far from the tragedy of the camps—he and we are finally faced with the question: will this horrifying war ever end? The Puppetmaster of Lodz is a gripping story of memory and survival.
Tickets to The Puppetmaster of Lodz are $45. For more information about the performance, please visit www.BerkshireTheatreGroup.org
