Tom Stoppard's ROUGH CROSSING to be Presented at the Resident Ensemble Players

Join the Resident Ensemble Players for Tom Stoppard's hilarious farce Rough Crossing, based on the original play by Ferenc Molnar, November 7th through November 24th, at the Roselle Center for the Arts.

Rough Crossing will have you laughing out loud with its eccentric characters, ridiculous plot twists, and increasingly silly misunderstandings. Two playwrights, a jealous composer, and the cast of a Broadway-bound show attempt to simultaneously finish writing and rehearse a play while crossing the Atlantic on an ocean liner. What could possibly go wrong?

Catch the REP's production of Rough Crossing, onstage November 7 through November 24, at the Roselle Center for the Arts in Newark, DE. It's the comedy The New York Times called "Light and lively... Stoppard's puns and non sequiturs ricochet around the stage like ping-pong balls at summer camp." Tickets can be purchased at the box office, online at www.rep.udel.edu, or by phone at (302) 831-2204.

The cast includes REP company members Hassan El-Amin* (Gal), Lee E. Ernst* (Divornichek), Michael Gotch* (Adam), Elizabeth Heflin* (Natasha), Mic Matarrese* (Ivor), and Stephen Pelinski* (Turai). *Member of Actors' Equity Association.

The creative team includes Ian Belknap (Director); Stefanie Hansen (Scenic Design); Celeste Jennings (Costume Design); Eileen Smitheimer (Lighting Design); Fabian Obispo (Sound Design); and Charlie Gilbert (Pianist).
