Following its successful run at this summer's Kansas City Fringe Festival, Dave Hanson's new play Intermission is slated for a full-length staged reading at MDC on Monday, November 10, at 6 p.m.
Intermission explores the curious courtship of Harry and Debbie, two single people who meet and
get to know each other 12 minutes at a time--the 12 minutes
that covers each intermission during a season of theater at a local
regional playhouse. Harry, a man whose fiancee left him at the altar on
their wedding day, only attends first acts because he doesn't believe in
happy endings. Debbie is a young widow who only attends second acts
because beginnings are too painful. What happens over the course of six
intermissions is a microcosm of the foibles of adult dating, the manners
of the theater, and two people trying very hard to move on from the
intermission of their current lives.
Intermission will be directed by Hanson, and features Mike Ott, Melody Butler, Kelli Morford, and Frank Oakley III..
