June 10 through July 23, Verge Theater proudly welcomes back Don’t Close Your Eyes: Live Radio Theatre!
Now in its record-setting sixth season, DCYE brings you seven live one-hour productions, each highlighting a different genre of old-time radio! Writer/Directors Ryan Cassavaugh and Keith Suta once again bring their high-energy, high-wire act of writing and staging a new script each week, replicating the demands of a weekly nationwide broadcast! Each show is written, practiced, and performed in one week’s time — starring many of the GallatinValley’s finest actors of stage and screen and featuring entirely live, analog sound effects!
On Monday night, the cast meets for an initial rehearsal; Tuesday and Wednesday the cast reviews their roles, sound effects are gathered, and musical accompaniment is prepared; Thursday is the full technical rehearsal; Friday and Saturday are show nights! While all this is going on, next week’s show is being written! It’s a dizzying feat of creativity that yields spontaneous, engaging, and imaginative entertainment that is fun for the entire family!
This year’s shows begin June 10 and 11, and run every Friday and Saturday until July 22 and 23! Every show begins at 8:00 p.m. at Verge Theater at 2304 North 7th Avenue in Bozeman (across from Murdoch’s)!
Tickets and money-saving multipasses are available at Cactus Records in Bozeman, and online at vergetheater.com/buy-tickets! Previous years’ episodes are available via iTunes and all other podcast providers!
