Homespun Theatre Company

Homespun Theatre Company is looking for actors for an upcoming production in March and April.
THE MISTAKES MADELINE MADE is a twisted and hilarious coming-of-age story about a girl who develops Ablutophobia, the fear of bathing. Struggling with a soul-crushing job as a personal assistant, she wages a furious, funny war against all things complacent, pampered and clean. As her smell starts to overwhelm her co-workers and many casual lovers—a series of bad poets—the play raises the questions: Is dirty living a political act? And is clean living even possible in these times of unrest? An unlikely story of love and dirty people.

I'm trying to get in touch with Sam Shepard about our next play- this is all I could find so far.

We are pleased to announce our next staged reading:

THE LANGUAGE ARCHIVE by Julia Cho.

The play tells the story of George, a man consumed with preserving and documenting the dying languages of far-flung cultures. Closer to home, though, language is failing him. He doesn't know what to say to his wife, Mary, to keep her from leaving him, and he doesn't recognize the deep feelings that his lab assistant, Emma, has for him.

The cast includes Samantha Cullen, Joshua Briggs, Hana Kenny, Glenn Barrett, Deborah Morris, and Annie Considine, with direction by Amanda Steurer.

Join us for a memorable evening of theater, as we explore stories of love and loss, the complexities of the human connection, and just how hopelessly funny the truth can be.

Saturday, April 11th, at 7:00pm and Sunday, April 12th, at 3:00pm.
Lauren Clark Fine Art, 25 Railroad Street, Great Barrington, MA.

Tickets will be sold at the door for a suggested donation of $15, and will soon be available for pre-purchase online.
