LANTERN THEATRE TO BEGIN LATE NIGHT SERIES
The Lantern Theatre will begin its 2012 Late Night series with Sam Shepard’s True West, which will be presented on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, May 31, June 1 and 2 at 8:00 pm at the Lantern Theatre, 1021 Van Ronkle in downtown Conway.
This American classic is the tale of Austin, who is writing a screenplay he has sold to a producer. When his brother, Lee, a demented petty thief, drops by, he insists that Austin drop his idea and write Lee’s trashy, western tale instead. The play was presented at the Steppenwolf Theatre in 1982 and featured Gary Sinise and John Malkovich. It was also a finalist for the 1983 Pulitzer Prize in Drama. The Lantern Theatre production cast includes Brady Ness, Levi Horne, Kelly Webber, and Greg Antley. The production is under the direction of Antley. Admission is $10 at the door. Reservations are not required and seats are not reserved. Doors open at 7:30 pm each evening. Due to language and subject matter, the play is recommended for adult audiences only. Lantern season ticket holders are reminded that the Late Night at the Lantern series is not included in the season ticket package.Further information is available online at www.conwayarts.org or by calling 501-428-0475. |
