Main Street Players (MSP) located at 6766 Main Street presents This Random World by Steven Dietz opening on Friday, April 13 and running to May 6.
Seven characters whose worlds intersect and collide search for deeper meaning and connection in their own lives. It follows the journey of Scottie, an aging and secretive mother, who has chosen to keep distant from her children, Beth and Tim. Beth is having a tough time connecting, while Tim is stuck in a rut.
Scottie is assisted by her aide Bernadette, who struggles to connect with her younger and free-spirited sister, Rhonda. Rounding out the cast are Claire, Tim’s high school girlfriend who lives in the past, and her current boyfriend Gary, who is looking for a way out.
In a world where it is more and more difficult to truly connect with another human being, This Random World is a beautiful, humorous and engaging reminder to make every effort to connect to others. The show is directed by Robert Coppel, assistant directed by Clara Lyzniak, with production manager Isaac Polanco.
The cast includes Fern Katz as Scottie, Robert Fritz as Tim, Melissa Almaguer as Beth, Zack Myers as Gary, Laura Marrero as Claire, Rita Joe as Bernadette, and Brianna Hart-Cox as Rhonda.
Shows are on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Tickets are $30 for adults and $25 for students, seniors, and military personnel. Theatre League members/Industry $20 with I.D. presented at door.
