The Billy Ocean/Teena Marie Confluence of
1985
Punchkin Repertory Theatre
January 25th through February 4th
Salvage Vanguard Theatre
The Billy Ocean/Teena Marie Confluence of 1985, a new play by Max Langert, will make its
debut during the FronteraFest Long Fringe 2012. The
second production from Punchkin Repertory Theatre runs January
25th through February 4th at the Salvage Vanguard Theatre.
The piece centers
around Allison, a young woman who is fascinated by charts and
has been plotting her emotional life for the past 20 years.
She shares the ups and downs of the past, specifically
focusing on her love life. She seems to have a pattern of
falling into one disappointing relationship after another, but
finds her only hope lies in two love songs from the 80s - which
have a seemingly karmic convergence. Directed by Lizz Taylor,
the cast features Taylor and Jay McKinney.
Playwright Langert is
a regular participant in the FronteraFest Short Fringe in
Austin and a member of the regional Texas writers' group,
ScriptWorks. Born in Oakland, California, his works have been
produced in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Dallas and
Nashville.
Performances will run
January 25th at 7 p.m., January 28th at 3:15 p.m., February 3rd
at 7 p.m. and February 4th at 10 p.m. Tickets are $12 for
general admission.
The Salvage Vanguard
Theatre is located at 2803 Manor Road. For tickets,
