The voices of our family, friends, and neighbors have been speaking for over a century…are we still listening?
The Spoon River Project
30 Actors – 30 Poems – 30 Performances
Leaping into 2021, City Theatre celebrates community with a virtual theatre performance adapted from the American masterwork poetry of Edgar Lee Masters. With thirty poems, thirty Austin actors perform the most revered of Masters’ collection. Speaking from the past in a small Illinois town, Spoon River poignantly captures the politics, passion, love, betrayals, secrets, failures, and hopes of its citizens, expressing true stories about death and life, and revealing a collective and moving portrait on what - and who – creates our place called home. Staged and filmed at Mueller Park in Austin, Texas.
With Zach Barrett, Terri Bennett, R. Michael Clinkscales, Lori Cordova, Mike Dellens, Gabriel Diehl, Sunshine Garrison, Stacey Glazer, Anne Hulsman, Tracy Hurd, Samantha Brewer-Insogna, Craig Kanne, Moses Kutz, Bonnie Lambert, Steve Lawson, Valencia Lee, Judy Lee, Christina Little-Manley, McArthur Moore, Jane Newchurch, Bill Newchurch, Meredith O’Brien, Bobbie Oliver, Larry Oliver, Beau Paul, Scott Poppaw, Patrick Wheeler, Ty Wiley, Chuck Winkler, and Ben Woods.
