By: BWW News Desk Oct. 11, 2012
The WORKSHOP THEATER COMPANY has announced THE CHEKHOV DREAMS, written by John McKinney, directed by Leslie Kincaid Burby and presented as part of WorkShop Theater Company's Play In Process (PIP) series. THE CHEKHOV DREAMS will play a limited engagement at The Jewel Box Theater (312 West 36th Street, 4th Floor). Performances begin tonight, October 11 and continue through Saturday, October 27.
Distraught over his fiancée's untimely passing three years ago, a once-aspiring writer copes with the loss he feels during waking hours by continuing their romance in his dreams. Add his party animal brother, a young actress and Anton Chekhov to the equation and you've got a romance where true love never dies. And that's the problem. Playwright John McKinney shows that while it may be hard to laugh about death, it turns out to be the best medicine as we watch Jeremy struggle to regain his will to live, and explore our own humanity with all its joys and sorrows.
The production stars Sutton Crawford*, Matt Faucher*, Michael Gnat*, Carmit Levite* and Jake Robards* (*Performing courtesy of Actors' Equity Association).
The production's assistant director is Heather Massie, associate producer is Anne Fizzard and assistant associate producer is Virginia Roncetti. It features scenic design by Jennifer Varbalow, and lighting design by Diana Duecker.
