MR. IN BETWEEN


Press Pray

Written by Seth Freeman
Directed by Pat Connelly

With Brad Sperber, Renée Charlow

It’s a dark and unsettled night. A desperate 21st-century soul seeks refuge in an ancient house of worship. When he decides to seek divine guidance, his prayers receive a very 21st-century response.

I couldn’t count the all emotions that ran across Brad Sperber’s face! Fantastic!
— N.S.
We didn’t see her, but Renée Charlow, as the Voice from Above, was terrific!
— I.R.J.
Hilarious piece! Loved the Pachelbel hold music!
— D.N.

You Could Be Here Now

Written by Douglas Stark
Directed by Jed Alexander

With Jamie Cline, Hannah Meyd, Paul Meyd

A desperate real estate salesman is caught between a warring couple: a wealthy trader seeking a place he can stash his mistress and the mistress who's seeking a place she can stash equity for putting up with the trader.

Great ensemble acting!
— H.G.
Loved the set (virtual background) – it gave a real sense of the condo they were haggling about.
— F.F.
All the characters were suitably smarmy!
— M.Y.

Line

Written by Donald Steven Olson
Directed by Tony Tambasco

With Lisa Graham Parson, Emma Lavaune

Two actors are running lines for a new play. But which lines are in the script and which are the actors' reactions to the play they're rehearsing?

Such a clever play – on several levels: the present-day dominance of technology and absence of person-to-person interaction, a behind-the-scenes look at an actors’ rehearsal, and a focus/concentration generation gap.
— K.F.
Both actors were believable and engaging!
— M.E.

Mr. In-Between

Written by Dave Carley
Directed by Joshua Secunda

With Norm Thibeault, Jeanne Louise

Carole woke up this morning to a very unconventional marriage proposal. She’s all for marriage, but first, she must find out who exactly the proposal is from… and fast.

Loved this noir piece!
— W.S.
Norm Thiebeault was relatable – and funny - as Harman W. Harman.
— B.V.
Jeanne Louise – quite a “doll” and femme fatale. Delightful performance!
— C. D.
Wonderful sound effects!
— S.R.
