THE PHYSICISTS OPENS MARCH 23

Not much to report - busy as can be with the show at school as we approach our final week of rehearsal before Hell Week. Things are coming along though. Last week was particularly busy for me as I was also housesitting in Half Moon Bay. Here's all the info for the show - come check it out.

The Cañada College Theatre Arts Department Presents
Friedrich Dürrenmatt’s
The Physicists
Directed by Linda Hoy

The scene is a madhouse and the focus is on three inmates who are nuclear physicists. One thinks he is Newton and another, Einstein. The third has visitations from Solomon. They appear to be nice, likeable lunatics, but nothing is as simple as it seems. Are they really mad? Or are they playing some murderous game with the world as the stake? Who is earnest and who is the spy? Gradually we learn that each has been led down the path to moral destruction, past the signposts of truth, the purity of science, and personal responsibility. The asylum to which their paths have led them seems much saner than the mad world they've left behind.
The Physicists will be performed with a curtain-raiser performance of
Scientists Say, written by Cañada College’s Dr. David Meckler.

A cast of 17 Cañada College students perform including:
Joey Axiaq, Volkan Heval Akoglu, Bianca Beyrouti, Josh Bryant, Cristal Campbell, Kimi Carey, Michael Chow, Megan Finley, Kyla Gibboney, Samantha Goldberg, Dmitri Kononov, Maryann Moore, Natali Nichols, Kate Russo, Kelsey Schiedeck and Peter Winch.
