AN ABSOLUTE TURKEY, by Georges Feydeau
New Players Company
Georges Feydeau's elegantly complex play is
brought to life in this witty, seamless and acutely funny translation
by Peter Hall and Nicki Frei. Feydeau, the supreme master of farce,
displays all his dramatic tricks as his characters are pulled back and
forth spinning dizzily in a surrealistic climax of complications.
Georges Feydeau (1862-1921) is regarded as the
father of French farce. The supreme master of the mechanics of farce,
he devoted his skills to exploding the hypocrisy of a very
self-important age. An Absolute Turkey (Le Dindon) is one of his best
loved plays.

PSYCH, by Evan Smith
tongue in cheek theater
Molly's best friend Sunny Goldfarb is sweeter than
sweet, a clinical psychology student, and a part-time dominatrix. When
a female classmate accuses Sunny of verbal harassment, she is pulled
into a world where psychological power reigns supreme and empathy is
psychotic. It seems Molly must decide whom to betray: herself or Sunny.
But is judging trust and betrayal really a matter of black and white?
