Bringing this show to the stage tonight has been a labor of love for Jason Downs (GUS/YAM) since before the pandemic -- born of both his love for Pinter's work and his love for Anthony Foux. His love for Albee (and new crush on Brad Greenquist) came into play more recently, but turned out to be the perfect alchemy for an evening of provocative theater...for which credit must go to Marilyn Fox and the wonderful subscribers (who voted to see an evening of Pinter/Albee) of this place that Jason loves so much, the Pacific Resident Theatre. Jason came to love PRT (and Anthony Foux, for that matter) when he was cast as Lenny in Pinter's The Homecoming directed by Guillermo Cienfuegos, whom he also loves. So basically, what you're about to witness is the result of a delicious and ongoing love fest. It is Jason's delight and honor to play a role in the cycle of its life. He expresses his deepest gratitude to all who have made this performance possible...including you, love.

Anthony Foux (Ben) For 15 years I worked in the financial fields, as an investment banker and bond trader for some of the nation’s top firms including Goldman Sachs and First Interstate Bank. I have owned and operated a series of small inns in Monterey, as well as other entrepreneurial enterprises and have a reached a stage in my life and business where I am able to explore the real passions in my life. Consequently, I decided to explore my real love – acting.. It had been something I had wanted to do for many years, and I am very grateful that I now have the opportunity to do so. . After studying at PRT and various other academies, I became a company member at PRT in 2005 and have been a part of several productions, including The Homecoming and Touch of a Poet. I am beyond excited to once again partner with Jason in another wonderful Pinter play.
