SHIPWRECKED! An Entertainment

By Donald Margulies
SEPT. 17 – OCT. 24 , 2010
At Willow Lawn

Acting superstars Joe Inscoe and Scott Wichmann appear together for the first time in this thrilling NEW comic adventure. In England at the turn of the last century, real-life fantasist Louis De Rougemont gained notoriety for his riveting memoirs about oceanic adventures. With antic imagination and boundless energy, Inscoe and Wichmann enact a tale that will both dazzle and delight. 90 Minutes with no intermission.

Shipwrecked poses the question, Which is more important - reality or an entertaining tale? As NBC12's Gene Cox says, "Never let a good story get in the way of truth."

Single Tickets: Adults: $40 Seniors $37 Tickets.com charges a small fee. Or Call (804) 282-2620	Directions to Willow Lawn Performance Schedule Seating Chart Discounts @BarksdaleVa

Voted last season’s Best New Play by the American Theatre Critics Association, this engaging flight of theatrical magic concerns two great women from very different centuries: Emilie du Chatelet—a real life physi­cist and courtesan to Voltaire, and the present-day Olivia, a fictional planetologist who is grappling with tensions be­tween motherhood and intellectual pursuit.

CIRCLE MIRROR TRANSFORMATION

By Annie Baker
April 15 - May 22, 2011
At Willow Lawn

A quirky, unpretentious comedy, Circle Mirror Transformation won this year's OBIE for Best American Play and was nominated for a Drama Desk Award. In small town Vermont, four very different locals and one teacher meet at the community center for a spirited acting class. Their theatre exercises - often hysterical, sometimes moving, and always inventive - lead to real life openness as all five participants learn more about each other than they bargained for.

DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS

Music & Lyrics by David Yazbek
Book by Jeffrey Lane
JUNE 17 – AUG. 7 , 2011
At the Empire Theatre

One of Broadway’s newest and funniest musical comedies, Scoundrels is based on the classic film starring Michael Caine and Steve Martin (played in our production by Scott Wichmann). Set on and around the breezy beaches of France, it is the free-wheeling story of two con men who try to out-con each other when they discover that the Riviera isn’t big enough for both of them. With a hot new score from the composer/lyricist of The Full Monty, Scoundrels will have you laughing yourself out of your seat, and dancing down the aisles.
