WHO ARE WE? I can honestly say there is no group of artists that better exemplifies the word “dedication” than this one. The actors, directors and crew members of this production of “Take Me Out” have stuck together through unbelievable circumstances, simply because of our dedication to each other and the show. Just a bit of history – We were all involved with a former theatre company and were slated to put on “Take Me Out” back in May. We were incredibly excited and honored to have the opportunity to participate in such an impactful production. But after committing months of our lives to this show, we found out that the founder & director of the theatre company had been engaging in extremely unprofessional and unethical activities. So less than a month before opening night, out of sheer principal, we all left the company. We all walked away with our heads held high, knowing we did the right thing. But we didn’t give up on the show. We vowed not to let all of our time, effort and work go to waste. So we hired a new director and assistant director, reassembled the cast and crew, and decided to put on the show ourselves. Hope to see you all at the show. ABOUT THE PLAY
Darren Lemming is the star center fielder for the world champion New York Empires. He comes from a middle-class, bi-racial family, but has never faced any sort of prejudice in his life. An extraordinary athlete, Darren’s abilities and confident presence fill both fans and teammates alike with awe. However, when he makes the matter-of-fact announcement that he’s gay, he throws his team into turmoil and confusion, ultimately resulting in tragedy. Richard Greenberg’s 2003 Tony Award winning hit explores the varying dynamic between male sports players, with great insight about baseball, masculinity, identity and friendship in the twenty-first century.
