Camping with Henry and Tom
February 18 – 21, 2016

In 1921, President Harding wants to be with his mistress, industrialist Henry Ford wants to be President, and inventor Thomas Edison wonders how the three end up together on a camping trip in the Maryland woods. Inspired by an actual event, Camping with Henry and Tom, is an exploration of friendship, politics and leadership; a comedic and dramatic clash of two great minds and one great heart of the twentieth century. “Witty, elegant, and enormously entertaining.” – N.Y. Daily News

Event Sponsor – Judge Jack and Shirley Moser

Mad Anthony Theatre Co: Moonlight and Magnolias
1939 Hollywood is abuzz. Legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut down production on his new epic, Gone with the Wind, a film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's novel. The screenplay just doesn't work. So what's an all-powerful movie mogul to do? While fending off the film's stars, gossip columnists, and his own father-in-law, Selznick sends a car for famed screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls formidable director Victor Fleming from the set of The Wizard of Oz.
Location: Fitton Center
Time: 8 p.m.

The Mad Anthony Theatre Company
Presents
Any Given Monday
By
Bruce Graham

February 12, 13, and 14 at 8:00 pm and February 15 at 2:00 pm

This will be the inaugural play in the newly renovated theater!

All tickets are $10 each.

When Lenny’s wife leaves him for a smooth-talking Lothario who builds Walmarts, his life is shattered. While Lenny consoles himself with pizza and Monday Night Football, his best friend Mickey takes matters into his own hands. Now Lenny must decide what he will stand up for and who he will stand up to. How far is too far to back to happily ever after.

“A dark comedy so offensive, so amoral and so generally unpleasant that you’ll hate yourself for laughing at it. The problem is, you’ll hate yourself a lot.” The New York Post

“A drawing room fable in which the ends justify the means, and happily ever after includes rooting for injuries—and waiting for the police reports.” The New York Times

There were so many amazing performances this season but there was something magical about LIGHT SENSITIVE. Perhaps it was my lack of expectations, but moreso I think it was the incredible chemistry exhibited by these three marvelously seasoned actors. I wish I had been able to find a photograph of the three of them because I would like for all of them to get the recognition they deserve. If you missed this show, you missed out.

SET DESIGN: Mary Slocum, The Story of My Life, Mad Anthony Theater

This was an exceptionally hard decision for me. Ensemble Theatre’s sets by Brian C. Mehring are some of the finest work in town and I thought the set for TRIBES and OTHER DESERT CITIES were super duper. I loved what the Playhouse did with CLYBOURNE PARK, especially the turntable. The lack of turntable made me want to vote for LES MISERABLES at UC-CCM as the use of chairs was extraordinary. I also enjoyed what CCM did with the set for CARRIE. But after careful thought, I’m settled on Mary Slocum’s work on THE STORY OF MY LIFE in Hamilton’s Mad Anthony Theatre. Her all-white bookshelves gave the musical a transcendent atmosphere that matched the metaphysical nature of the show. And it was functional, allowing the actors to use the space in a creative way. Kudos to Slocum, who also did great work on LIGHT SENSITIVE.
