Confetti Stage presents the regional premiere of Water by the Spoonful,
winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, by Quiara Alegría Hudes.
Hudes is perhaps best known for writing the book for 2008 Tony-winning
Best Musical, In the Heights.</div><div> </div><div>In Water by the
Spoonful, Hudes crafts a love song to her native city of Philadelphia in
this uniquely modern drama, which tells the story of Elliot Ortiz, a
returning Iraq War veteran who is haunted by the ghosts of his past.
Hudes also weaves together the stories of several recovering crack
addicts seeking support and connection in an online chat room. As
storylines in both the real and virtual worlds clash and collide, we
share in the triumphs and struggles of belonging to a family – whether
that family is of flesh and blood or chosen and forged through online
connections. Variety hailed Water by the Spoonful as “a combination
poem, prayer, and app on how to cope in an age of uncertainty, speed,
and chaos.”<br><br><span class=""><span class="">Our cast features: Keyonn Everett, Ken Goldfarb, Cory Haines, Vivian Hwang, Donald Hyman, Erica Johnson, and Katrina Wilkinson</span></span><br></div><div> </div><div>PERFORMANCE DATES AND TIMES:<br>Friday-Saturday, April 24-25 at 7:30pm</div><div>Sunday, April 26 at 2:00pm</div><div>Thursday-Saturday, April 30 & May 1-2 at 7:30pm<br>Sunday, May 3 at 2:00pm</div><div> </div><div>All performances will take place at <br> The Albany Masonic Hall, 4th Floor Theater,<br> 67 Corning Place, Downtown Albany, NY 12207.</div><div> </div><div><span>Tickets will be available at the door or may be reserved by calling the Confetti Stage Box Office at <a href="tel:%28518%29%20460-1167" value="+15184601167" target="_blank"><font color="#0066cc">(518) 460-1167</font></a>.<br> Online tickets are available through our website: <a href="http://www.confettistage.org/tickets" target="_blank"><font color="#0066cc">www.confettistage.org/tickets</font></a><br><br> General Admission Tickets are: $15 for an individual; Flextix (4-show punch card) for $50;<br>$10 Student tickets with ID<div><span></span><div><span></span> </div><div><span>Also check out our facebook page for info, updates, and pictures of our cast: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ConfettiStageInc" target="_blank"><font color="#0066cc">https://www.facebook.com/</font><font color="#0066cc">ConfettiStageInc</font></a></span></div></div></span></div><br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Confetti Stage, Inc<br></div><div><a href="http://www.confettistage.org" target="_blank">www.confettistage.org</a></div><div><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ConfettiStageInc" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/ConfettiStageInc</a><br></div><div>Please join us for the regional premiere of <font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)" color="#0b5394" size="4"><b>Water by the Spoonful </b><font color="#000000" size="2">by</font><b> <font color="#38761d" size="2">Quiara Alegría Hudes</font></b></font>, April 24th - May 3rd, 2015. <br><br></div><div>We also invite you to join us for a magical evening at <span style="color:rgb(204,0,0)"><font size="4"><b>Le Moulin Rouge Soiree</b></font></span> at Waterworks Pub (76 Central Ave - Albany) on May 16th, 7pm!<br></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
