Photo Flash: Theatre In The Round Opens 'I AM A CAMERA'
Theatre in the Round Players (TRP) presents I AM A CAMERA by John van Druten in weekend performances February 13 through March 8.
A young English novelist is living in a rooming-house in Berlin, a decadent city in the years before Hitler, trying to write a journal of his experiences. Enter Sally Bowles, a vivacious, mercurial spirit in green fingernail polish, living from gin to gin. They soon develop a friendship ? an alliance against a world slowly going mad outside their door. At times funny, at times intense, this dark drama was the basis for the musical CABARET.
Matt Sciple directs a cast of seven, with David McMenomy as Christopher Isherwood and Katie Guentzel as Sally Bowles. Sets are designed by Kesa Collins, costumes by Michelle Clark, and lighting by Daniel Ellis.
In a special joint promotion with Chameleon Theatre Circle, which is simultaneously performing CABARET in the new Burnsville Performing Arts Center, audience members will be able to use their ticket stubs from one show for a discount to the other.
Tickets are $20. For information, call the theatre's box office at 612-333-3010 or visit its website at www.TheatreintheRound.org.
