[Capdist-announce] Last weekend to see True West at the Ghent Playhouse!

[Linda Murawski]

Be sure to catch True West at the Ghent Playhouse with performances Friday
and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m.



Shepard’s play has become a well-established contemporary masterpiece and
the Ghent Playhouse is excited to be staging it.



*True West* made its Broadway debut in 2000.  The Ghent Playhouse
production is directed by Patrick White and will introduce Nathaniel Drake
to its stage, as Lee the drifter.  Kevin Kilb, who was last seen in the
Playhouse’s production of *The 39 Steps*, will play Austin, the yuppie
screenwriter.  Rounding out the cast is newcomer Rob Weber as the Hollywood
Producer and Stephanie Sloane as the brothers’ mother who returns after
eleven years, having last appeared in the Playhouse’s production of *The
Oldest Profession*.



*True West* takes place at the California desert home of Austin and Lee’s
mother, where the two brothers are reunited after five years.  When Lee’s
pitch of a screenplay idea is accepted by a film producer over the script
that Austin has long been developing, the play explodes in verbal and
physical violence, as the two fight for possession and control.



The show is produced by Ghent Playhouse President, Kelly Mackerer, with set
design by Sam Reilly, lighting design by Isabel Filkins and costume design
by Joanne Maurer.





Tickets are $20 each, $17 for Members of the Playhouse and $10 for Students
with ID.  Tickets may be reserved by calling 1-800-838-3006 or going to the
website at www.ghentplayhouse.org.



Be sure to reserve your tickets early, especially for the Sunday matinee!



The Playhouse is now air conditioned for our patron’s comfort!
