‘Endgame’ Debuts at Laughing Owl Productions Theater

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

By Dana Nollsch

A few nights ago I had the privilege of attending the first production at Laughing Owl Productions. This is a small theater on Wells Avenue, and is the brainchild of Dave Anderson. Dave with the help of many others intend to produce plays that rely mainly on the spoken word. This small plain venue lends itself to simple sets that focus the attention on the acting and the words.

Their first offering is Endgame by Samuel Beckett. This play originally premiered in 1957 and was written in a style known as Theater of the Absurd. Often times considered an existential comedy this four-person, one act play is at the same time disturbing and intriguing.
