Drawing on 25 years of comedic insight, outrage and commentary the nationally known Comedian, Jimmy Tingle has constructed another hilarious thought provoking and politically charged one-man show based on his 2008 run for the White House. For 90 minutes Tingle campaigns with passion, intellect and creativity on every issue from immigration and education to global warming and national healthcare.
Running as the nominee of “The American Peace Party” which he founded in 2000 it is Jimmy Tingle's hope to use his campaign and the party to create a vehicle to raise the consciences of the American people and help move this great nation out of the wilderness of partisan politics and despair and into the “promised land” of hope, laughter, optimism, progress, prosperity and peace with humor.

Greetings from Payomet Performing Arts Center In Truro!
Dear Pals of Payomet,
I'm happy to announce that Payomet just got the rights to produce The Visit by Friedrich Durrenmatt, one of the classics of the twentieth century and a play that is rarely performed on a regional level. And I'm even happier to announce that Daisy Walker will be directing this first production of Summer 2008.
Payomet is heading into its 10th Season (TENTh at the TENT!) and it's going to open with a bang!
The Visit is a play that has been described many different ways, depending on the director's interpretation. Durrenmatt called it a comedy. It is that, and it is much more. Most often, the themes and action of The Visit - revenge, greed and group murder - land the play in the court of tragicomedy.
Daisy Walker, on the other hand, can be described only one way: bursting with talent.
A former Artistic Associate of Classic Stage in NYC, Daisy is currently the Associate Director of Jersey Boys for Broadway. Daisy has also, over the last several years, directed at the Atlantic Theatre in New York City and The Guthrie in Minneapolis, among others. Daisy has also compiled credits as Assistant Director of Sinatra, His Music, His World, His Way at Radio City Music Hall and Twelfth Night for The Public Theatre's New York Shakespeare Festival in Central Park. As a longtime summer resident of Wellfleet she has also directed plays at the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theatre including Private Eyes, Stonewall Jackson's House and the premiere of my own play, One Night In The Life Of Denise Ivanovich. She has an MFA in Directing from the University of California San Diego and in 2005 was the recipient of a Sir John Gielgud Fellowship from the Society of Stage Directors and Choreographers.
Daisy comes from a theatre family. Her mother, Dina Harris, is a produced screenwriter and playwright and her father, Daniel Walker, is a lifelong drama instructor, actor, director and co-founder of the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theatre.
The Visit is one of my favorite plays, very challenging (multiple sets and a cast of 34!) and I can't wait to see what Daisy does with it.
Make plans to visit the world of The Visit! It opens Monday, June 23rd.
Payomet will continue its tradition of professional theatre and will cast both Equity and non-Equity actors in this production. Auditions will be held in New York City and in Truro, dates and details to be announced soon.
Theatrically yours,
|
