synopsis
Conversing Elevens
A one-act comedy about a married couple whose ids, egos,
and superegos are greatly led astray through the unqualified therapy session of
a nosey restaurant waiter named Sigmund.
Dunce
Three people are unwillingly locked in a room. They are unaware of their crimes; unknowing
of their captors, unfamiliar with their clothes; they cannot even remember
their own names. With the past a blur,
the trio desperately searches for meaning in a stark, absurd present. In this one-act drama, a single dunce hat
that sits in the middle of the cell may be the key to their only way of escape.
The
Event
Firebelly
Productions presented staged readings of
David Cahill's one-acts, Conversing Elevens
and Dunce, to a jam-packed crowd
of over one hundred people in the Kennedy Center's
South Atrium Foyer. This if the first
time Firebelly had participated in the Kennedy
Center's Prelude Festival. The plays
were extremely well received, and an audience
requested talkback, featuring the cast,
director, producers, and author, occurred
after the performances. During this
talkback details of the two one-acts were
discussed, and Firebelly took the opportunity
to announce that both shows would be produced
fully for their upcomming 2005 Spring production.
Featuring:
Josh Drew, Matthew C. Hartman,
and Sarah Imes. Directed by Jessica Lefkow. Written
by David Cahill. Produced by Firebelly
Productions.
