Roaring laughs and gasps of surprise emanate from the Dusty Loo Bon Vivant Theater as Theatreworks draws open the curtain on its 2011–12 season and aims to add even more plaques to its wall of awards and accolades. Social issues dominate the early season as provocative playwright Young Jean Lee explores the historical confluence of theater and religion in Church and Shakespeare expert Tina Packer plumbs the underexplored world of the Bard’s female characters in Women of Will. In Joe Turner’s Come and Gone, a large cast enriches August Wilson’s tale of a 1900s African-American boarding house with rich music, dance, and skywriting elements.
An intimate black box theater with seating for about 200, the Dusty Loo Bon Vivant Theater situates audience members as close to the action as the fourth wall allows. Hungry attendees need not sneak backstage to steal prop fruit bowls, as a concessions stand keeps stomach grumbles from disrupting the action with cookies and popcorn ($2–$4), sodas ($3), and specialty cocktails ($5–$6).
