THE EQUATION presented by Theatre9/12
In our time of soaring unemployment, sketchy Wall Street practices, and increasingly vast income polarity, the examination of a capitalistic economy and what it does to humanity asks to be explored. Originally commissioned by the UNITAS Theatre Co. of Los Angeles who felt the plays themes were too controversial for a new company, the workshop was produced nevertheless by the cast and crew and since revised by its author. Told through reverse chronology in Depression-era New York City with layered scenes in a nearby town house one generation later, THE EQUATION engages the audience in a "how-done-it" about a birth rather than a death. This period "play of excavation" reveals a physician and his wife who attempt to adopt the infant son of a Russian woman desperate to give her child a shot at the American Dream glittering impossibly beyond her grasp.
Directed by Theatre 9/12 Artistic Director Charles Waxberg, the cast features:
Eric Olson as Arash
Cynthia Geary as Ivy Dupont
Monica Finney as Victoria Gates
Joey Fechtel as Barron Gates
Colleen Carey as Pandora
David S. Klein as Dr. Jerome
