World Première

Cow-Tipping and Other Signs of Stress, by Gregory Fletcher

September 21 - 23 & 28 - 29, 2006 at 7:30 pm at Kenworthy Performing Arts
Centre, Moscow, Idaho

 

After years of perseverance and rejection letters, undiscovered playwright
Christopher Post asks for a sign from the universe confirming that he’s on
the right path.  The signs flood in, each contradicting the next.  When
Christopher runs into an old college buddy who works for role model and star
playwright Ward Edington, Christopher begins sneaking, stealing, hiding,
conniving, teasing, fighting, and his life continues to snowball from there.
Saving his marriage and career will be the hardest rewrite of his life.  A
romantic dramedy laced with farce and cows.  

Cow-Tipping and Other Signs of Stress won the 2005 American College Theatre
Festival Mark Twain Award for Comedy Playwriting at the Kennedy Center.
Sirius Idaho Theatre proudly presents the world première.

 

Touch, by Toni Press-Coffman

January 25 – 27, February 1 - 3, 2007 at 7:30 pm at Kenworthy Performing
Arts Centre, Moscow, Idaho

 

Kyle Kalke, an astronomer since childhood, a high school “science nerd,”
falls in love with flamboyant, outspoken, openhearted Zoe,
who—astonishingly, he thinks—loves him back. A tragic and graceful love
story, Touch is about a man in despair questioning whether there is any
point to rediscovering passion, risking connection, groping toward the touch
that will rekindle joy.

 

Breaking the Code, by Hugh Whitemore

April 12 - 14 & 19 - 21, 2007 at 7:30 pm at Kenworthy Performing Arts
Centre, Moscow, Idaho

 

Derek Jacobi took London and Broadway by storm in this exceptional
biographical drama about a man who broke too many codes. The eccentric
genius Alan Turing played a major role in winning World War II; he broke the
complex German code called Enigma, enabling allied forces to foresee German
maneuvers. Since his work was classified top secret for years after the war,
no one knew how much was owed to him when he was put on trial for breaking
another code. A compelling and suspenseful story, Breaking the Code portrays
a creative genius living in a world not yet ready.

 

The Oldest Profession, by Paula Vogel

Dates and location of this staged reading to be announced.

 

As Ronald Reagan enters the White House, five aging practitioners of the
oldest profession are faced with a diminishing clientele, increased
competition for their niche market, and aching joints. With wit, compassion,
and humor, they struggle to find and learn new tricks as they fight to stay
in the Life.

 

Sirius Idaho Theatre offers these transforming, positive plays as part of
their interest in providing quality live theatre to the Palouse region. For
