ZU’s next production, the full-length “A Glass Veil” will premiere in early May in the Blue Room.  Due to time constraints and a multitude of other productions beginning, there will only be a limted two performances of this mainstage show.  Usually, ZU does 3 productions of the spring closer.  Performance begins at 8:00 pm.

“A Glass Veil”  by Katherine Orozco, is a tale of irony based on a young girl’s alleged madness paralleling the detectives investigating her case.  After a series of mysterious murders occur, the show plays out almost in reverse of the traditional structure of a building climax.  Unfortunately, we can’t give me out without giving away the play itself, so come out and see.

Cast members include:

Katherine Orozco (Nightmare of Oz, Cooookie!) wrote and assisted directed the play and will star as the lead characters Irina and Simone.  Under the direction of Michael Verderber (manikin, The Mattress), the cast also includes ZU mainstage actors Daron Briscoe (the Wonderland series, Acoustical) and Luis Zaragosa (Twas the Flop, Fish & Giggles) playing Detectives Lawrence and Joyce, respectively.

Josh Cavazos (directing The Rorshach Test, acting in Only Slightly Mad) dabbles in the concernced yet calculated psychologist Dr. Hugo Faris.  Irina’s parents will be played by Elizabeth Lysinger (Chapters, Nightmare) as Lorraine and David Sabrio (The Rape of Lucrece, All The World’s a Stage) as the father, William.

Minor roles include Verderber as Captain Shaw, EMTs Aaron Salinas (Relapse in Wonderland, Pinko’s Pirouette) and Joshua McCaulley (Inviting a Friend to Supper, PrePunch).  Tech include Anissa Medina (Pot & Kettle, Cooookie!), Rebekah Ramos (Lolita & the Fox, The Rorshach Test), Salinas, and C.J. Lillie (Premature Punchline and Not That Wise writer).

The play opens in the Blue Room at 8:00 on May 2 and 3.  Admission is $2.

Premature Punchline will have a little mini-show as part of “First Fridays”, a monthly art event held at the Tango Tea Roomin Corpus Christi.  PP should be performing at around 8 pm on Friday (5th) either inside or at the courtyard area.  See ya there!

PrePunch, our resident comedy improv troupe, has a performance TOMORROW (Tues) night in the Blue Room at 7:00!
