What's On - The Actors' Gang
TWO GENTLEBOTS OF VERONA
Two Gentlebots of Verona, our 50-minute adaptation of William Shakespeare's
play Two Gentlemen of Verona, brings love, laughter, and invaluable life
lessons to the stage. When two best friends, Val and Proteus, travel to
Culver City, their bond is put to the test. They both fall for the same
robot, Silvia Dot Matrix, prompting betrayal, disguises, and a journey of
forgiveness that brings them back to friendship. This production has
something for everyone...including pop culture references, fun characters,
music, dance, and of course, Shakespeare's poetry. Join us this August and
don't forget to bring a blanket to sit on, sun protection, snacks, and
water. Beep Bop Boop Bop!

THE WOMEN OF LOCKERBIE
A mother from New Jersey roams the hills of Lockerbie, Scotland, looking for
her son’s remains seven years after he was lost in the crash of Pan Am 103.
She meets the women of Lockerbie, who are fighting the U.S. government to
obtain the clothing of the victims found in the plane’s wreckage. The women,
determined to convert an act of hatred into an act of love, want to wash the
clothes of the dead and return them to the victim’s families. The Women of
Lockerbie is loosely inspired by a true story, although the characters and
situations in the play are purely fictional. Written in the structure of a
Greek tragedy, it is a poetic drama about the triumph of love over hate.
