Yesterday, Tongue in Cheek Theater Productions loaded in for its 28th production, Whale Song or: Learning to Live with Mobyphobia by Claire Kiechel, which opens on Wednesday, October 29 at 8 pm at The Bridge Theatre @ Shetler Studios (244 West 54th Street, 12th Floor, midtown).
While the set for this show seems minimal, we filled a small minivan with a wooden bench, IKEA boxes of furniture to assemble, rolls of fabric for the floor, and a whole host of props, supplies and costumes.
The resulting set, designed by producing artistic director Jake Lipman and assistant director/lighting designer Molly Ballerstein, is beige on beige on beige, signaling the fact that our protagonist, Maya Swan, is in a murky rut with her life. The parade of other characters are the pops of color that compel her out of the beige.Get your tickets here: http://www.smarttix.com/Show.aspx?ShowCode=WHA47 or by calling 212-868-4444. 9 performances, Wed Oct. 29-Sat Nov. 1 and Tue Nov. 4-Sat Nov. 8 at 8 pm at The Bridge Theatre @ Shetler Studios, 244 West 54th Street, 12th Floor, NYC.
