MADC’s March production of Michael Green’s THE COARSE ACTING SHOW, directed by Stephen Oliver, is a crazy set of brilliant short comedies that ‘go wrong’ performed at Teatru Salesjan AND Teatru Manoel.
Hilariously, everything which can go wrong in a production does so. In all, cues are missed, effects fail and props are lost and confusion reigns, but the coarse actors struggle on. Featuring a stellar cast - Alan Paris, Andrea Pace, Brendon Thearle, Craig Abela, Edward Caruana Galizia, Edward Thorpe, Francesca Briffa, Franco Sciberras, Jacob Falzon, Kate De Cesare, Leah Grech, Kim Dalli, Richard Godden and Shaun Rizzo - this highly entertaining show is surely not to be missed!
The show is broken down into 6 short plays all showing actors at their worst. STREUTH, the classic murder mystery, A COLLIER’S TUESDAY TEA, a gritty Northern drama, complete with dodgy accents, ALL’S WELL THAT ENDS AS YOU LIKE IT, the very worst in Shakespearean performance, THE CHERRY SISTERS, deliciously Chekovian, LAST CALL FOR BREAKFAST, one of those overly pretentious Arthaudian/Beckett style pieces and finally JULIUS and CLEOPATRA, complete with chariot race.
This amateur production of 'The Coarse Acting Show' is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
