PAST EVENTS
A Special Evening in Memory of Julian Sands
Just back from our New York production at the Katonah Classic Stage:
Applicant
Directed by Marilyn Fox and Myrna Gawryn
The Dumb Waiter
Directed by Marilyn Fox; Original Stagging by Elina de Santos
Starring Jason Downs, Shelby Barry, and Anthony Foux
Harnessing the flair of an iconic playwright during the birth of the Absurdist movement, Pacific Resident Theatre delights in welcoming home a pair of short, meaty, dark comedies by Harold Pinter: Applicant and The Dumbwaiter. A retrospective of two early one acts — a sketch that has rarely been seen, and the other arguably his very best short play, both written in the late 50’s and first produced in the early 60’s, they will run in tandem for 80 minutes of pure, if not sometimes absurdly baffling, entertainment.
*Saturday’s performances will be in tribute of Julian Sands.*
In 2012, Sands brought his remarkable “A Celebration of Harold Pinter” to PRT. It subsequently toured and went to New York City. This production is dedicated to the memory of Julian Sands… a friend to Harold Pinter, a friend to Pacific Resident Theatre, and a friend to all who bring quality work to the stage.
