'EXILE' continues on at REDCAT

The run of 'The Exile of Petie DeLarge' at Son of Semele Theater was tremendously successful, and I am so grateful to all the friends and intrepid theater-goers who came out to support.

What's that you say?  You were out of LA, or hiding out in June and you missed the excitement of 'Exile' bursting out of the 36-seat Son of Semele Theater?  Well, lucky you, you get a second chance! Because REDCAT (the Roy and Edna Disney CalArts Theater) in downtown LA is kicking of its annual New Original Works (NOW) Festival with our show, July 22-24.

And if you did catch the show at SOSE, come see it again at REDCAT.  As 'Exile' is a work-in-progress, we learned a lot from the 6 performances in June, and have gone back into our rehearsal process.  The result is some big changes, as we adjust to a larger space and get deeper into text and character, improve the mask work and integration of music.  We hope you like the growth of the piece as much as we do!

Now for some cool pictures from SOSE:
