Roles:
Set in 1939 San Francisco, The Time of Your Life welcomes us into Nick’s Pacific Street Saloon, an island of respite in a chaotic world. Its patrons don’t have much, but together they find opportunities for redemption, recovery, and friendship. This Pulitzer Prize winning work will be directed by HTG’s Artistic Director, Don Rice.
Comprised of ten short scenes, ‘The Good Doctor’ is loosely based on Anton Chekhov’s plays and short stories, and narrated by the man himself! This delightful comedy will be directed by HTG’s Managing Director, Krista Pennington.
In this modern telling of a classic comedy, a prince and his companions visit the estate of an old friend, leading to plans of love, a war of wits, and a scheme by the Prince’s conniving brother to bring about the downfall of all. HTG co-founder, Keith Oberfeld, will be directing this wonderful play.
