Presenting Sean Sweeney's new play

HEAVEN (By Way of Suicide)

Short Fringe

 

A family comes together as the father, who is terminally ill, prepares to take his own life in lieu of suffering. Each member of the family is forced to reconcile their past discrepancies, while confronting their own religious beliefs. A (very) dark comedy. 

Featuring Beyond August's Jill Klopp Turner as well as fellow The Outsider cast member, Darren Scharf.

THE OUTSIDER
BY PAUL SLADE SMITH

Played October 1st-16th, 2022 at The Rosette Theater, Austin 

THE OUTSIDER was directed by  Jeff Hinkle 

"Political comedy is a tough game these days — not only have those two terms become pretty much redundant, but ultimately (and paradoxically) it can be hard to muster a laugh at the more tragic real-life consequences of policy-making.

 

But with “The Outsider,” Paul Slade Smith has managed to write a play about politics that’s not only genuinely and consistently funny, but has something eloquent to say about the meaning of leadership."

San Diego Union-Tribune

Amongst a political scandal, Lieutenant Governor Ned Newley, a bumbling wallflower with a paralyzing fear of public speaking, suddenly finds himself thrust into the Governor's chair. Though Ned seems destined to fail in his new role, his political consultants believe that his obvious shortcomings may prove to be his ticket to widespread popularity.


The Cast of THE OUTSIDER: Michael Stuart, Tim Blackwood, Patrick Wheeler, Shannon Embry, Robyn Conner, Jill Klopp Turner, Darren Scharf 

Stage Manager: Mindy Griffin
