Monkeyhouse's Jason Ries and The Coveted Crown

by karen Krolak

As you may remember, Monkeyhouse's Production Manager, Jason Ries, cranked out a rather sassy set for (ASP) Taming of the Shrew last fall. Well, this October he is kicking off ASP's season by tackling Henry IV. Directed by Patrick Swanson, The Coveted Crown Henry IV Parts 1 and 2 is an action-packed, two play blitz presented in repertory at Midway Studios. According to the press release, it will examine the meaning of greatness and will climax in an historic combat pitting the hero against his alter ego. Somehow, Monkeyhouse's Man-in-Motion will also sneak an appearance at Dance in the Fells: 5 Pieces, 5 Places between the opening of Part 1 on October 2 and Part 2 on October 9. Let's all keep our fingers crossed that he doesn't end up on the PUP list.

Hmmm...one senses that Jason's pre-season cheesehead fever is contagious. Speaking of which, if you want to check out an open rehearsal this Sunday and still catch the Packers opening game against the Eagles, ASP has you covered. Things are a little tighter if you are a Patriots fan. Rehearsal starts at 11AM, downstairs at the Garage in Harvard Square.
