A Company of Wayward Saints
Written by George Herman
The company is a commedia dell' arte group who wander
by mistake into the eye of an allegory. They are humanity, wayward
saints all, who are far from home and without means. A nobleman may
be their salvation if they can put on a good show for him.
Surprisingly, the Company chooses to present the history of man,
from the Garden of Eden through Everyman in birth, adolescence,
marriage and death. Along the way they enact other wayward
adventures such as the assassination of Julius Caesar and the
homecoming of Odysseus. It is a fine mosaic of life redeemed by
humor and human understanding.
Performance Dates – June 2008 through July 2008
Tickets $20.00 General / $15.00 Discount tickets for
Groups/ Students / Seniors

Merry Filthy
Christmas

This delightfully
naughty sketch show is the brainchild of co-writer, director and
star Darren T. Mangler. The 75-minute show takes aim in sketch and
song at holiday season. Both the secular and religious sides of the
holiday take their lumps from Mangler’s seasoned cast of writers and
performers. Not for the PC crowd, this show is rated by the cast as
NC-17 for language and content.

STORY
Biking With
Andrew Scott
is a dark comedy about the effect Andy's suicide has on those
closest to him, especially that of his life-long, control freak,
best friend, Stephanie. Trying desperately to hold everyone else's
life together, hers quickly falls apart. Things get more and more
complicated as Andy's Ghost tries to "help", and his born-again
mother, gay lover and tarot card reader all interfere with her
plans. It follows Stephanie and Andy for a little over a year as
they go through all of the stages of grief in order to come to terms
with his death - - after all, that is the only way either of them
will move on with their life and death, respectively.

DungeonMaster
Enter a world where
nothing is at it seems. Enter the world of DungeonMaster.
Los
Angeles' best Interactive Fantasy Role-playing Company of over 20
years is back yet again for more adventuring at the Write Act
Repertory Theatre. This year features even more opportunities to get
out of the audience and kill a few Orcs. But beware…you might get
killed yourself if you are not fleet of foot and quick-witted with
thought and deed. Dungeon Master is a reference to the far more
innocent role-playing games made popular in the 80s such as Dungeons
and Dragons. Although the world of Atoll is wholly original, much of
the creatures and denizens of the land have roots in the first
edition D&D books. Any character you may have seen or used in a D&D
game would fit in smoothly here. The major difference is of course
that anyone can use magic and can cast any spell with just a grand
gesture and an ability to rhyme. You don't have to play, but the
adventure is a lot more fun if you are part of it.
RETURNING IN 2008
Tickets: $10 ($2 off if you come in costume)
