We don't need to say anything about "Hamlet," which some people think may be the greatest play of William Shakespeare.
As far as actors go, this cast features Joe Foust, Angela Iannone, Chase Stoeger, Rick Pendzich Andrew Truschinski and Bill Clifford. It's worth it just to go see Foust, one of the busiest and best actors in Chicago, and Stoeger, who just returned from work in Oregon.
Michael DiPadova, the founder of Nevermore, directs this production and it's sure to have an edge.
Nevermore is committed to great plays with great acting and not much else, so don't expect fancy sets or sound. But, you can expect the essence of what great theatre ought to be.
As an actor I'd love to work at Nevermore but I've never been called for an audition. Maybe someday.
You can get tickets for the play at the Off-Broadway theatre center in the Third Ward by calling (414) 278-0765. The play runs from Jan. 5 to 21.
With a history in Milwaukee stretching back decades, Dave tries to bring a unique perspective to his writing, whether it's sports, politics, theater or any other issue.
He's seen Milwaukee grow, suffer pangs of growth, strive for success and has been involved in many efforts to both shape and re-shape the city. He's a happy man, now that he's quit playing golf, and enjoys music, his children and grandchildren and the myriad of sports in this state. He loves great food and hates bullies and people who think they are smarter than everyone else.
This whole Internet thing continues to baffle him, but he's willing to play the game as long as OnMilwaukee.com keeps lending him a helping hand. He is constantly amazed that just a few dedicated people can provide so much news and information to a hungry public.
Despite some opinions to the contrary, Dave likes most stuff. But he is a skeptic who constantly wonders about the world around him. So many questions, so few answers.
