WGT’s On Our Feet (OOF!) Stage Reading Series offers four performances with all the hallmarks of a full production: intricate blocking, designed sets, costumes, and music. The only difference is that the actors carry their scripts. They meet on Tuesday and open Friday. After 30 hours of rehearsal, they’re up and running – and you will want to be there to laugh through this Classic Farce Double Bill on Love, Sex & Marriage!
Directed by Bernard Cuffling
The Marriage Proposal
By Anton Chekhov; Adapted by Jay BrazeauAlso known as “The Proposal”, this classic, fast-paced, and farcical screwball comedy is all about the “business” of love. This dialogue-based, one-act play was written in 1888-1889 and first performed in 1890.
Overruled
By George Bernard Shaw
Mr. Lunn and Mrs. Juno have fallen in love. So, as it happens, have their respective spouses—with each other! Two couples are swingin’ at an English seaside hotel in Shaw’s zany, humorous, and thought-provoking exploration of marriage, polyamory, and fidelity.
