Let this evening of original one-act plays whet your appetite for the Renegade Theatre Festival coming August 14-16 to Old Town, Lansing!
NOTE that August 14-16 are the correct dates for Renegade. I had 14-17 in the printed Ripples.... anyway, probably too far off to cause TOO much confusion at this point! ;-}
As an author, I'm excited to see/hear these readings! And grateful to BIll Helder for keeping the first three scripts alive that were written about 15 years ago, around the time Tim Bogar inspired us by doing theatre in coffee shops. Thanks to Eileen O'Leary for joining the "shop" pack. (Hers was not written for this "shop assignment," so it has its own "unshop" title - but still fits the bill of being set in a "shop.")
This is a small example of the diverse and unique examples of theatre, readings and full performances that are the Renegade Theatre Festival. As you plan your summer vacations, plan to be here August 14-16 for a "theatre vacation" in Lansing's Old Town.
