Mill City Productions announces June Play Reading - June 12, 2008
NORTH ADAMS — Mill City Productions, a North Adams based community theatre is pleased to announce “The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds” by Paul Zindel as the June selection for their monthly play reading series. The dramatic reading will be held on Wednesday, June 25 at 8 p.m. at Mill City’s new home, Building 4 (next to the Visitor’s Center) in the Western Gateway Heritage State Park in North Adams.
Please park in either the Northeast lot (near NBCTC) or in the Son’s of Italy lot. Admission is $3. Tickets will be available at the door. The reading will be directed by Marissa Carlson and feature Stephanie Mayer, Brooke Mead, Sam Therrien and Liz Urban.
Zindel’s “Marigolds” revolves around a dysfunctional family consisting of a mother and her two daughters. The mother, Beatrice Hunsdorfer wreaks a petty vengeance on everyone around her, including her daughters, Ruth, a pretty but highly-strung girl subject to convulsions and Tillie, a plain and almost pathologically shy girl who has an intuitive gift for science. Encouraged by her teacher, Tillie undertakes a gamma ray experiment with marigolds that wins a prize at her high school. Proud and yet too jealous to accept her daughter's success, Beatrice can only maim when she needs to love and deride when she wants to praise. “Marigolds” won the 1971 Pulitzer Prize for Drama as well as an Obie Award and the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award.
Mill City Productions is a non-profit, community-based, multigenerational collaborative focused on creating an outlet for expression and education for theatrical veterans and novices alike.
