Air Pirates

On March 11 and 12th The Air Pirates Radio Theater, the only theater of its kind, is performing two of its mysteries right here at the playhouse. Herb Marks Freelance: "It Ain't Over Till The Fat Lady Swings" (3/11) and "Not All Fortunes are Found in Cookies" (3/12) are two of the company's most popular comedies. Presenting a unique mixture of live contemporary interactive theater and old time radio comedy the The Air Pirates perform the staged readings as they were broadcast live on the radio. An ensemble of five actors portrays all the characters while the audience is asked to produce all the sound effects. The Cue Card Girl lets the audiences know when it's time to slam a door, make the footsteps and even shoot the guns during the shows. The Pirates even perform the radio commercials live asking the audience to supply the necessary sounds.

The Air Pirates Radio Theater was voted the Best Performing Troupe of 2010 in the Hudson Valley by the Times Herald Record. Brian Nieves, Alan Andrews and Paul Ellis were also selected Best Actor, Best Singer and Best Director respectively.

We hope you can join us for what should be two really fun, interactive shows.
