Are We Delicious?: Double Delicious
Bartell Theatre 113 E. Mifflin St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
Why do a single, absolutely insane, everything-in-one-week show, when you can do two at once? Are We Delicious? presents Double Delicious, their 22nd (and also 23rd) show written, rehearsed and premiered in a single week. Drawing at random, the two ensembles of Madison performer/writers will write short plays for each other to act. Working together in a deliberate crisis situation, the writer/actors will work for seven straight days to create two original shows packed full off...WHO KNOWS?, they don’t start writing until May 2nd.
Every Delicious is like a box of chocolates, and by that measure, Double Delicious will have two full layers of chewy goodness: Act 1 is an ensemble of Madison performers and comedians who join the show through try-outs. Act 2 is an invited ensemble of Delicious veterans lead by Matt Sloan and Kelly Maxwell, who have each written and acted over 10 times for Delicious.
The Act 1 try-outs are Tuesday, April 19th 6 to 9 pm at Broom Street Theater (1119 Willy Street) and Saturday, April 23rd 12:30 to 3:30 pm at the Wil-Mar Center (953 Jenifer Street). Complete audition info at the link below.
The Act 2 ensemble includes Matt Sloan, Kelly Maxwell, Jess Schuknecht, Doug Reed, Deborah Hearst, and Catherine Capellaro.
Double Delicious is designed, moderated and directed by Tony Trout, Dana Pellebon and Matt Sloan
