festival @ first

[totient]

Saw the Theatre @ First one-acts last night. This year's one-acts were all by the author of a favorite of mine, Superhero. I was there because of some people with whose work I had become familiar -- but was also pleasantly surprised by the strength of some newcomers and people I hadn't seen before. Particular props to newcomers to the Theatre @ First stage Jackie Freyman and Jon Beach and old hands Alyssa Osiecki and Mare Freed, who I thought turned in excellent performances; directors Kamela Dolinova and Amy Lee Bennett; and festival director Erika Reinfeld for a presentation that held together remarkably well as a whole. I'm especially hoping to see what else Kamela gets up to -- she was ambitious in her direction and it really worked.

I went last night and very much enjoyed it.

I seem to have come home without my program; which plays were the people you mentioned involved with?
