The Tragical Mirth of Marriage & Love : Short Scenes by Anton Chekhov with Pallas Theatre Collective
In January 2013, LiveArt (rhymes with GiveArt DC) held it's first meeting for Causality, a long term, process oriented production with script by Kevin Finkelstein and direction by me. The cast of Causality currently includes James Radack, Julie Garner, Michael Rodriquez and Belen Pifel. Our creative team (cast, director, designers, playwright) will work on this project until we decide it is ready to be presented to an audience. This could take anywhere from 1-4 years, there really is no time limit.
