Expert Weighs in at Academy Town Square May 18
Bruce Feiler, a New York Times bestselling author and columnist, will give a lecture on Tuesday, May 23 at 7:30 p.m. at Main Line Reform Temple in Wynnewood. One of America’s most popular voices on contemporary life, Feiler is justly celebrated for books that explore the import in our own lives of our culture’s foundational stories. His bestsellers Walking the Bible and Abraham thoughtfully explored our shared ancestors and engaged people of all backgrounds in open, compassionate conversation during a time of discord and fear. Now with The First Love Story: Adam, Eve and Us – his first major writing on religion in a decade – Feiler redeems history’s first couple, explains the many ways we’ve scapegoated Eve, and elevates these founding figures to their rightful place as role models for unity and forgiveness. The book recently received a rave review in the New York Times. Copies of The First Love Story: Adam, Eve and Us will be available to purchase at the event, courtesy of Children’s Book World in Haverford. The lecture and book signing is sponsored by Main Line Reform Temple, Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Beth Am Israel, Gladwyne Presbyterian Church, and Beth David Reform Congregation. Bruce Feiler writes the “This Life” column for the Sunday New York Times and is the author of six consecutive New York Times bestsellers, including Walking the Bible, Abraham, and The Secrets of Happy Families. He’s also the writer/presenter of the PBS series Walking the Bible and Sacred Journeys with Bruce Feiler. For information, visit www.mlrt.org.

PAC’s “The White Devil” Continued from front page
In stark contrast to the hopeful, happy endings of Shakespeare, John Webster’s classic dark comedy thriller paints a different picture. “This play presents a world that the light rarely shines through, that the noblest characters don’t survive till the end, and you’re left with a world that is in flux or in danger,” says director Damon Bonetti. Drawing parallels between the uncertainty and corruption of the post-elizabethan world and today’s unstable political climate, “The White Devil” presents a unique look at the underside of human nature, making a 400 year-old story descriptive of today. The production caps a season spent exploring works of the Jacobean era. This blood and tragedy is paired with a cutting dark comedy, revealing a fun world full of infidelity, adultery, and betrayal. Passions are revealed and spark a seething retribution. John Webster’s taut Jacobean tragedy explores the violence teeming underneath the veneer of a civilized society. Featuring Charlotte Northeast as Vittoria, on trial for the murder of her husband, and Dan Hodge as her less-than-upright brother Flaminio in this film noir-inspired production. “The shadowland that film noir lives in works really well for this story, this murky world of the 1940’s,” says Bonetti of the unique aesthetic of the production. Prescribing a film noir tone allows the script to feel updated in a style that is viable and recognizable. This stylistic choice bleeds through to the design elements of the production. “Film Noir is the major design element of the play,” explains costume designer Katherine Fritz. A simple, bare thrust proscenium stage paired with limited scenery gives way to an imaginative costume design. “It feels like my work gets to create the world in a lot of ways. And I’m excited to help build characters through a really vibrant time with a limited color palette.” This film noir world comes to life with the additional help of an soundscape. Compiled and composed by Barrymore nominated sound designer, Stefán Örn Arnarson. Focusing on the resonance of the cello, the music score will pair classic instrumentals with original pieces, performed live by Örn Arnarson. The live score becomes a living sound design, incorporating speakers to lift the music to create the atmosphere of stylized world. Completing the dark thriller aesthetic is cast of characters fully realized in classic PAC style. “In choosing this play, we wanted to simplify and get back to basics—do what we do really well which are these really verse heavy, tough classics that tell a really great human story,” says Bonetti. To tackle this classic, this production features PAC’s Co-Founding Artistic Director and Barrymore awarded Dan Hodge as the social-climbing Flaminio and Artistic Associate, Barrymore awarded Charlotte Northeast as his sister Vittoria – on trial for the murder of her husband, Duke of Brachiano, played by Jared Reed. Reed, along with Northeast and Hodge, will be supported onstage by some of Philadelphia’s finest actors: including PAC audience favorites Adam Altman, John Lopes and Brian McCann, with newcomers MaryLee Bednarek, Alexandra Braverman, David Pica, and JJ Van Name. “The White Devil” runs from May 3 through May 20. Ticket reservations and information is available at www.philartistscollective.org or by phone at 267-521-2210. Performances for “The White Devil” take place at Broad Street Ministry, 315 S.

Patrick Ryan, Shelli Pentimall Bookler, Anthony Marsala. Photo/Courtesy Scott R. Grumling. arberth Community Theatre’s comedic production of “Don’t Dress for Dinner” opens on Friday, May 5, at its permanent home, the Overbrook Presbyterian Church located at 6376 City Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19151. Director Scott Grumling and producer Cheryl Chewkanes, lead the production team. The show runs May 5 through May 14, with Friday and Saturday performances beginning at 8 p.m. and Sunday performances beginning at 3 p.m. Ticket prices range from $14 - $16 and can be purchased at www.narberthcommunitytheatre.org. “Don’t Dress for Dinner,” by Marc Camoletti, opens with Bernard planning a romantic weekend away with his chic Parisian mistress at his vacation home in the French countryside, while his wife, Jacqueline is away. He has hired a cordon bleu cook to prepare gourmet meals, and has invited his best friend, Robert, along for the weekend to provide the alibi. What could possibly go wrong? Suppose Robert turns up not realizing why he had been invited. Suppose Robert and Jacqueline are secret lovers, and consequently determine that Jacqueline will not leave for the weekend. When everyone’s alibi gets confused with everyone else’s, hilarity and confusion ensue as Bernard and Robert improvise their way through the weekend. The cast of Narberth Community Theatre’s “Don’t Dress for Dinner” includes a talented ensemble led by Tom Ryan (Bernard), Lauren Kerstetter (Jacqueline), Anthony Marsala (Robert), Leah O’Hara (Suzanne), Shelli Pentimall Bookler (Suzette), and Vinny Ali (George). Narberth Community Theatre (NCT) has been entertaining the Philadelphia and Main Line communities for over 50 years. Come out and support this local theater, conveniently located on the corner of City Avenue and Lancaster Avenue. NCT’s 2017-2018 season will open in the fall with “The Mystery of Edwin Drood.” For information regarding Narberth’s theatrical productions, contact: Rachel Berger at Rbergs89@gmail.com.
