Circle Players will perform Annie Bakers's play "Body Awareness."
The show performs at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays from January 16-31 as well as at 3 p.m. on February 1. Tickets are $17 for seniors/students and $18 for adults and are available online.
It’s “Body Awareness” week at Shirley State College in Vermont and Phyllis, a psychology professor and event organizer, and her partner, Joyce, are hosting one of the guest artists in their home, Frank Bonitatibus, a photographer famous for his female nude portraits. Both his presence in the home and his chosen subject instigate tension from the start. Phyllis is furious at his depictions, but Joyce is actually rather intrigued by the whole thing, even going so far as to contemplate posing for him. As Joyce and Phyllis bicker, Joyce’s son, Jared, on the brink of adulthood and who may or may not have Asperger’s Disorder, struggles to express himself physically with heartbreaking results.
The show is directed by Ed Faver and stars Chris DeBono as Jared, Charles Deitz Senior as Frank, Heidi Carter Hart as Phyllis, and Kate Soriano as Joyce.
