Just a handful of teaser pics from the forthcoming “A GLASS VEIL”, written by Katherine Orozco and directed by Michael Verderber.

Pictured in the black shirt is Luis Zaragosa, blue shirt is Josh Cavazos, white shirt is Daron Briscoe, plaid shirt is David Sabrio, black tank top is Katherine Orozco, and brown sweater is Elizabeth Lysinger.

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!

Members of Zero Untitled has a very busy weekend of Feb 16-17.  On Saturday, ZU members attended a writing workshop of distinguished playwright/performance artist/activist Sharon Bridgforth in the Blue Room.  Bridgforth’s workshop focused primarily on stream of consciousness writing and delving deep into the psyche.

 In addition to the two-hour long workshop, members had to run back to GATOcon III, an anime/comic/videogame convention held at the Union on the campus of TAMUK for a performance of Premature Punchline at 2 pm.  The performance featured a revival of last year’s “It’s Not Very Effective” by Miguel Venegas.

On Sunday at the con, another group of PP members performed a different show
