(FREEHOLD, NJ) -- Center Players of Freehold has a number of events coming up at Center Playhouse, 35 South Street, Freehold, including a production of four new short plays; a Live Classic Radio Show, and a VOICE-OVER Workshop hosted by Abacus Entertainment.
New Short Plays: Friday, May 19 @8:00pm and Saturday, May 20 @2:00pm. Four exciting new works will be presented in the style of Black Box Theater with a stripped-down set, limited costumes and props. The event will be directed by Michael Tota and Rachel Ryan Hamilton and will feature three pieces by playwright Richard Fulco.
Deep Fried Monster: During a performance of a play, two actors battle each other for the lead, while the director tries to keep both happy.
Swedish Fish- In a futuristic world where people must pay to speak, a tramp encounters an impoverished woman on a country road and hastily spends all his money hoping to engage in meaningful conversation with her.
New Hope is the story of Henry, a slippery, realist of a musician, and Camille, an idealistic small-town debutante. The play takes place in one evening. In their short time together, Henry and Camille date, get engaged, married, separated, and divorced.
The following piece is written by Anthony Marinelli: Sartre Was Wrong, a parody of No Exit where, instead of "hell being other people" hell is people without technology. All tickets specially priced at $15.
Live Classic Radio Show: Friday, May 26 @ 8:00pm. The Classic Radio Road Show presents old-time radio programs: Blondie and Dagwood and My Favorite Husband, complete with costumed actors, props and special sound effects. In “Blondie,” Blondie effortlessly outsmarts a “used-up” car salesman while poor Dagwood struggles to keep up. In “My Favorite Husband,” Liz and George Cugat don’t have children….yet. However, George gets the mistaken idea that Liz is expecting when he finds the hidden baby booties that she has been knitting. Tickets are $20.
VOICE-OVER Workshop hosted by Abacus Entertainment: Saturday, June 3 from 1:00pm-5:00pm. The "hands-on" workshop will be hosted by Bryant Falk, a corporate producer, director and professional voiceover commercial coach, from Abacus Entertainment, NYC. He will provide an overview of the industry and explain the current opportunities for voiceover work from home or in a remote setting. Participants explore the possibilities of pursuing full and part-time paid work for TV, commercials, training videos, cartoons, and video games. Falk and his team have taught voiceover programs at Stella Adler Acting School, Hofstra University, Brooklyn College and the Actors’ Connection. Their media clients include Footlocker, Bloomberg, Walmart, Genentech, AMC, MTV, and the NBA.
Class size is limited to 20 students; cost is $75.00.
