Synopsis:

George, a professor at a small college, and his wife, Martha, have just returned home, drunk from a Saturday night party. Martha announces, amidst general profanity, that she has invited a young couple—an opportunistic new professor at the college and his shatteringly naïve new bride—to stop by for a nightcap. When they arrive the charade begins. The drinks flow and suddenly inhibitions melt. It becomes clear that Martha is determined to seduce the young professor, and George couldn't care less. But underneath the edgy banter, which is crossfire between both couples, lurks an undercurrent of tragedy and despair. George and Martha's inhuman bitterness toward one another is provoked by the enormous personal sadness that they have pledged to keep to themselves: a secret that has seemingly been the foundation for their relationship. In the end, the mystery in which the distressed George and Martha have taken refuge is exposed, once and for all revealing the degrading mess they have made of their lives.

Characters:
George is a professor of history in a small New England college who is married to the daughter of the president of the college. Age: 40-55 (he's younger than Martha but says he looks older)

Martha George's wife is a domineering, discontented woman who alternately loves and reviles her husband. Age: 40-50

Nick is A new arrival on the faculty who is interested in getting ahead. Age: 25-30

Honey Nick's wife is a rather uninteresting woman whose relationship with Nick and fear of adult responsibility have kept her a child. Age: 20-30

The show is produced thru a special arrangement with Concord Theatricals

Madrigal Choir - Gary Shakespeare Co

Gary Shakespeare Co. is excited to announce auditions for our new Madrigal Choir! Auditions will be held on January 13th (6 pm) and January 14th (2 pm) at St. Barnabas of the Dunes at 601 Potawatomi Trail in Gary, Indiana.

Please prepare approximately 20 bars of music to sing a cappella. You will also be sight-reading with others.

Rehearsals are projected to be approximately twice or three times a month with the first performance in the Spring or Summer!

So what makes a Madrigal different from other choirs? A Madrigal is a genre of non-religious, unaccompanied vocal music that became extremely popular in Europe in the 16th century, and continued to be written in most of the first half of the 17th century, especially in Italy and England.

Madrigal singing is a very intimate kind of performing, requiring subtle communication among the singers to establish tempo, dynamics, starting and stopping, and creating an emotional sense in the music.

We hope that you’ll come and join us for auditions! All ages are welcome.
