Port City Playhouse 2010-2011 Season of Change A Special Note: Our 33rd season is an exciting one that reflects Port City Playhouse’s core principles with plays that are thoughtful as well as entertaining. We think it is one of our best seasons yet! We also are excited to inform you of our move to a new performance space effective with our third show of the 2010-2011 season next February! It is a wonderful “black box” space that will allow us to perform in the more intimate setting we have been hoping for since our move several years ago to the Lee Center. The new space is known as The Lab at Convergence, located at 1819 N. Quaker Lane in Alexandria, VA 22302, right across I-395 from Shirlington. We look forward to welcoming you there in 2011! -- Ron Field, President

Click here and Share: Downloadable Poster DC Area Premiere - Trust and Loyalty Stephen Bellamy is a wunderkind press secretary who has built a career that men twice his age would envy. During a tight presidential primary, Stephen's meteoric rise falls prey to the backroom politics of more seasoned operatives. Farragut North is a timely story about the ambitious struggle for political fame and glory. Farragut North is an “enjoyable play about spinmeisters on the campaign trail — a fast-paced couple of hours.” - N.Y. Times Cast Includes:
Rashomon by Faye & Michael Kanin Directed by Howard Vincent Kurtz
Performance Dates: Fri/Sat Nov 5/6, 12/13 & 19/20 at 8 pm; Tue Nov 16 at 8 pm plus Sun Matinees Nov 14/21 at 2 pm *
Click here for: Audition Information Out of a Legend, it Conjures a Mood The story of Rashomon is one of classical simplicity. Set in Japan over 1000 years ago, three actors take on nine roles to recall a rape and murder, while searching for the absolute truth. This newly staged adaptation intertwines dialogue, sound and movement into an evening of pure theatrical art. "Delicate and dynamic, sensitive and savage, packed with color, suspense and seamy wit. A triumph of stagecraft." - N.Y. Mirror
No Niggers, No Jews, No Dogs by John Redwood Directed by Frank Pasqualino
Performance Dates: Fri/Sat Feb 18/19, 25/26 & Mar 4/5 at 8 pm; Tue Mar 1 at 8 pm plus Sun Matinees Feb 27 & Mar 6 at 2 pm * Hate, Love, Vengeance and Forgiveness Called a “provocative title for a heartwarming play.” The year is 1949, the place is North Carolina and the title refers to signs commonly posted in that era. The Cheek family is visited by a Jewish scholar researching the effects of prejudice on both blacks and Jews, and by a mysterious local African American woman with a dark secret. “The “No” Play... is not what you would expect... rather, it is nostalgic." - Curtain Up Review Please note, effective with the above play, we will be performing at our new space.

Mindgame by Anthony Horowitz Directed by Bruce Follmer
Performance Dates: Fri/Sat May 6/7, 13/14 & 20/21 at 8 pm; Tue May 17 at 8 pm plus Sun Matinees May 15 & 22 at 2 pm * Probes the Terror of Madness Mark Styler is a writer of glossy “true crime” paperbacks who tries to get an interview with a notorious serial killer. He soon discovers that very little is quite what it seems. Mindgame is a puzzle-box thriller that actually manages to thrill and a very dark comedy that twists and spirals towards a completely unexpected ending. "A truly gripping thriller keeps you guessing and marveling from its deceptively normal opening to its fearful climax." - The Stage * Note: Times and dates are subject to change - please check this website often for updated information Click here for: Audition Information Click here for: Ticket Information Click here for: Season Ticket Info & Pricing Click to read: Recent Reviews Click Here: Port City Past Seasons Producers & Crew Wanted -- Please see our Membership Page for more information or click here to: Volunteer Today For a reminder of upcoming auditions and volunteer opportunities, click here: to Join The PCP Yahoo Group!
