Down to the Wire

There is no denying it, we are down to the wire now. Tonight is the big moment when the lights dim, the audience quiets down, and the curtain raises on Syllabus of Errors. Except minus that curtain part actually because we are doing this in the round. But anyway, you get the idea.

Our journey thus far has been filled with hard work, determination, creativity, and yes, sometimes frustration when trying to perfect lines, blocking and even pronunciation of words such as "errors" (something kind of important you know, seeing as it's in the title of the play and all). In any case, one thing the rehearsal process has never been is dull.  I was always amazed by my fellow actors' dedication and ability to create new and exciting characterizations on stage.  Not to mention Brian's incredible direction, and style and manner of giving us insight into our characters and helping us to better create the world of the play from beginning to end.

Perhaps the greatest thing we will take from this process is not only how we've grown and learned as actors, but also the comradery and memories that we've made together as people. Brian once said that memory is like a big house, and that at the end of your life you can take a walk through the house and see in each room the people and stories and experiences that have truly touched you and left their mark. I know that for me, this rewarding and meaningful theatre experience with 11:11 will surely go into my house of memories. 

So we're off, setting forth to opening night. Basking under those lights, reveling in the magic that is acting. I wish I could bottle the feeling--both exhilarating and frightening at the same time.  But that is all part of its beauty. I know with this particular play, with its characters and story, the audience will be moved emotionally and mentally. Not only will you want to laugh at the witty language and snide character personalities, you will also feel the deep sadness that is the struggle of their present situation.

Please come see the show. And spread the word to your friends and family. You will be glad you did. We promise you this.

The Seagull opens March 7
Current mood: excited
Category: Parties and Nightlife

The Seagull ..> ..>

For the second time 11:11 looks to tackle Chekhov's masterpiece on art, age and beauty.  Constantine, a young dreamer, looks to find new forms in theater, even as he alienates the love of his life.  His mother, Arkadina, looks to find intrigue in her later life and in rural Russia.  Her lover, the writer Trigorin, seduces Nina, an aspiring actress.  There is a timeless truth to a place where everyone longs for every ounce of their fleeting youth.

A quiet masterpiece of everything and nothing. ..> ..>

Showtimes: March 7 & 8 @ 8pm March 9 @ 3pm March 13, 14, & 15 @ 8pm

Panoply opens in less than 2 weeks!
Current mood: energetic
Category: Parties and Nightlife

Brian Tuttle's newest masterpiece of intrigue, Panoply (pronounced PAN-uh-plee), opens on November 30!  We've been working very hard to bring you a killer show in a very short amount of time, and take it from me: the $15 will be worth it.  We've got sex and violence, people.  Just like the ole' Coliseum.  But with sex.

If you're in the Boston area at the end of the month, don't miss the fun!

2007-2008 Season
Current mood: excited
Category: Life

The theme of 11:11 2007-2008 season is 'Leaving Youth'. On an individual scale, many of our company members are reaching their mid to late twenties, that time when society suggests that fun and games are over and that it is time to get a real job and to move on from penniless dreams. It is both a scary and inspiring time.

This season will open with a new work "How to Make the World Smaller" penned by Brian Tuttle. If you would like to catch a glimpse of the inside workings of a young fringe theatre company and the struggles they face to keep their dreams alive this show is not to be missed!

Panoply, also written by Brian Tuttle,  will be our second show of the season.  An action filled epic, Panoply takes a look at a moment in time, where the world's interconnectedness is unavoidable.

The third show of the season is The Seagull. Anton Chekhov's timeless play on art, age, and beauty. Be sure to join us for this quiet masterpiece of everything and nothing.

Our final show of the season will be An Evening From the Catapult, a world premiere musical by Oliver Caplan. Be there to see this amazing talent to make his musical debut and find out what happens to four friends on the last night they will spend together before their paths separate for good.

Show dates and details to follow. Stay Tuned!
