STEVEN DIETZ’S “THIS RANDOM WORLD” OPENS FRIDAY AT SCHENECTADY
CIVIC PLAYERS (AN AREA PREMIER)
_PROOF OF VACCINATION AND MASKS REQUIRED AT ALL PERFORMANCES._
SCHENECTADY == THE FIRST MAIN STAGE PLAY OF SCHENECTADY CIVIC
PLAYERS’ 94TH SEASON, “THIS RANDOM WORLD,” BY STEVEN DIETZ AND
DIRECTED BY CRISTINE M. LOFFREDO, OPENS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, AND PLAYS
THROUGH SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 21 AT ITS 12 SOUTH CHURCH STREET PLAYHOUSE IN
SCHENECTADY’S HISTORIC STOCKADE DISTRICT.
_ THIS RANDOM WORLD_, ONE OF THE LATEST WRITTEN BY PROLIFIC
PLAYWRIGHT STEVEN DIETZ, IS AN AREA PREMIER. WE WANT TO BELIEVE THAT
SERENDIPITY BRINGS US TOGETHER, BUT IS THAT JUST A MYTH? MINING THE
COMEDY OF MISSED CONNECTIONS, _THIS RANDOM WORLD_ ASKS THE SERIOUS
QUESTION OF HOW OFTEN WE TRAVEL PARALLEL PATHS THROUGH THE WORLD
WITHOUT NOTICING. FROM AN AILING WOMAN WHO PLANS ONE FINAL TRIP, TO
HER DAUGHTER PLANNING ONE GREAT ESCAPE AND HER SON FALLING PREY TO A
PRANK GONE WRONG, THIS FUNNY, INTIMATE, AND HEARTBREAKING PLAY
EXPLORES THE LIVES THAT MAY BE HAPPENING JUST OUT OF REACH OF OUR OWN.
“THE PLAY IS FAST AND FUNNY, DELIVERING CONSTANT COMEDY THAT COMES
FROM THE CHARACTERS AND THEIR FOIBLES, INCLUDING NUMEROUS INSTANCES OF
THE LAUGHTER THAT COMES FROM A PLACE OF PAINFUL SELF RECOGNITION.”
—ARTS-LOUISVILLE.COM
THE CIVIC PLAYERS CAST FEATURES SARA PAUPINI (_AS BETH WARD_),
JASON BISZICK (_AS TIM WARD)_, JOANNE WESTERVELT (_AS SCOTTIE WARD_),
KAREN KOLTERMAN (_AS BERNADETTE_), GABRIEL HAGE (_AS GARY_), LAURA
GRAVER (_AS CLAIRE_), AND JENNIFER VANIDERSTYNE (_AS RHONDA_).
