Mercury Fur – CAST & PHOTOS

admin — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 19:55:34 +0000

cannot believe the FINAL weekend of Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy & My Dull Friend is here already! and what does that mean? (besides the fact that you need to get your tickets NOW) …well, the next show is in full throttle gearing for its opening on Saturday, April 2nd. the show is Philip Ridley’s controversial Mercury Fur, a wild play that has been described as a sort of mash-up of Clockwork Orange and Hostel. it also has a helluva lot of heart and i’m loving every minute with it (oh yeah, i’m directing it!). and yes, we are opening on a Saturday as the run of Mercury Fur will not have Friday night performances (except the first Friday on April 1st will be a $10 preview performance at 8pm). showtimes for Mercury Fur are Saturday and Monday nights at 8pm and Sunday afternoons at 3pm. check out the cast list and press photos before and make your reservations HERE! and check out the photos below (photography by Colleen Scribner)!

FATAL Reviews!!!

“…a show enjoyable for viewers and performers alike. This Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy is one more exhibit in a wealth of evidence that, although not its sole accomplishment, Who Wants Cake? is unparalleled in the realm of camp.”
-Carolyn Hayes, The Rogue Critic

“Who Wants Cake? reprises Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy with a vim and gusto that keeps the audience roaring with laughter. From the familiar ’80s tunes to the gender-bending child and mistress, everything about Fatal Attraction is over the top.”
-Bridgette M. Redman, Encore Michigan

the summer show has been announced! wwc? will be performing Sordid Lives: It’s a Drag! by Del Shores (who penned Southern Baptist Sissies which was the first big Ringwald hit back in 2007!) Saturdays-Mondays starting July 10 and ending August 2nd. you may be familiar with Sordid Lives from its film roots (in 2000 with Olivia Newton-John, Delta Burke, and my personal favorite, Beth Grant) or from the short-lived LOGO series in 2008. this version will feature all men playing women roles and vice a versey. we have some newbies to the Ringwald stage (but very familiar with the GO! stage down the street) as you’ll see below. check out the pix and make your reservations HERE!
