What a lovely gift the theatre world is going me for my birthday — A production of a new ten-minute play and a reading of a new full-length play. If you live in Massachusetts and would like to attend either event, here is the relevant information. Maybe we’ll see you there?
King Arthur in Contemporary Connecticut
a full-length play by James C Ferguson
Thursday, March 14, 7:00 PM
Trident Booksellers & Cafe 338 Newbury Street Boston, MA
Please join the Vagabond Theatre Group for a reading of local playwright James C Ferguson’s KING ARTHUR IN CONTEMPORARY CONNECTICUT!
In the middle of a battle with the evil Mordrid, King Arthur is suddenly and magically transported to the twentieth century, where he’s faced with continuing his quest for the Holy Grail. In this comedy/satire inspired by Mark Twain’s famous work A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, the Has-been King Arthur meets up with the wizard Merlin (who of course–being a wizard–is immortal ) and the ghosts of friends long past to settle scores and forge a new future.
As with all TWBW readings, admission is FREE, though we do suggest a donation of $2 to help us continue to hold events like this and bring fresh, new voices to Boston audiences.
So, arrive early, grab a drink and a bite to eat in Trident’s cafe, and support small theatre!
RSVP on Facebook and invite your friends!
