THE STORM THEATRE IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE FIRST SHOW OF OUR 2008-2009 SEASON!
Opening October 3rd:
THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE
By William Saroyan
Directed by Peter Dobbins
Set in the uneasy calm between the
Depression and WWII, William Saroyan’s THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE follows the patrons
of a San Francisco waterfront bar over the course of a single day in 1939.
Uniquely American in its outlook, Saroyan’s characters exude a clear-eyed
confidence and resiliency as they face the troubles ahead in this funny,
dramatic and ultimately touching celebration of existence.
The Storm Theatre is proud to return Saroyan's masterpiece to the New York stage.
October 3rd through November 1st
Thursdays through Saturdays @ 7:30
Saturday matinees @ 2:00
Tickets will be on sale soon at SmartTix.

LATEST COMPANY NEWS:
The Storm Theatre has been chosen by nytheatre.com as one of its
"People of the Year" for 2007!
nytheatre.com had this to say about the Storm:
"Helmed by artistic director Peter Dobbins, the Storm distinguished itself
this year with a fine new play (John Regis's Linnea) plus the unprecented and invaluable
festival of plays by Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II). The latter event gave New Yorkers
an opportunity to see four seldom-produced plays, including the fascinating
The Jeweler's Shop."
More information about this award may be found on the nytheatre.com website.
LINNEA has been published in The New York Theatre Experience's collection PLAYS AND PLAYWRIGHTS 2008!
"Plays and Playwrights 2008" is an anthology
of 10 plays by emerging
playwrights, produced in NYC during the 2006-07 theatre season. Among them is LINNEA, originally
produced by the Storm Theatre! (clieck here for reviews and
more information)
In LINNEA, a young writer who is obsessed by Dostoyevsky lives out his own New York City dream version
of "The Idiot" in this remarkable coming-of-age tale.
Author John Regis is an actor, a director, a teacher, and a playwright. He was born in
Marblehead, MA on July 4, 1958, and raised in both Peabody, MA and Hampton, NH. He
received a B.A. in Communications from Fordham University, and studied with Stella
Adler and Mario Sileti at the Stella Adler Conservatory. John teaches drama and
videomaking at the Bank Street School.
Congratulations, John!
