Party of the First Part, Laurie Goulding, and Bespoke Plays have announced a new production of The Sphere of Fixed Stars in the Heavens written and directed by J. Holtham. Featuring Tiffany Smith and VonDexter Montegut II, the show returns home to North Hollywood following its critically acclaimed run in the 2024 Hollywood Fringe Festival. There will be nine performances only at Theatre 68 Arts Complex (The Rosalie), 5112 Lankershim Boulevard, in the NoHo Arts District. There will be two Pay What You Can previews on Thursday, February 13, and Friday, February 14, at 8pm. Opening night is set for Saturday, February 15, at 8pm.
On a rooftop in North Hollywood, Owen and Elodie meet at a friend's birthday party. Then they meet again. And again. And again. They get to know each other, learn about each other, and maybe start to like each other. Again. And again. And again. For both, this one encounter challenges what they know about love, desire, hope, and time. They discover that nothing lasts forever ... except for the things that do.
This production will feature new scenes, set design by Amanda Knehans, costume design by Wren Witting, lighting design by Jack Kelly, and sound design by James Ingram. Fiona Cumming is stage manager.
