2010 Short Play Series
Join us for a series of plays showcasing some of Pacific Coast Theatre's closest actors. This year we're kicking off with three hand-picked plays we know you'll love.
Breaking and EnteringA comedy by Vin Morreale, Jr. |
 |
A play to steal your heart with a generous mix of larceny, love and laughter. A charming con man breaks into what he thinks is an empty apartment only to find a mysterious woman waiting for him. Despite his outlandish stories, she always seems two steps ahead of him, until the audience is left wondering who is really the better con artist? Just when we figure out what is really going on, a middle-aged man enters with a remote control, heart-strewn boxer shorts, and the same name as the mysterious woman! The best-laid plans collapse into felonious fun when a love-struck neighbor completes the ensemble. Hysterical plot twists, sparkling dialogue and mistaken identities highlight this screwball romantic comedy. Pilfering has never been this funny!

Coming this July Pacific Coast Theatre will be producing the seriocomedy, ‘Art’. The story, about art and friendship, is marvelously simple. A man, Serge, buys a modern painting for a relatively large sum of money (200,000 French francs). One friend to whom he shows off his new purchase, Marc, is completely unsettled by Serge’s purchase. Another mutual friend, Yvan, is more ambivalent. The show is for more mature audience members (high school and above, or with parent guidance) Tickets on sale now for $10 ($8 with college ID).
