Yellow Taxi Returns to Hunt Building for September Show
Taking Sides by Ronald Harwood
Directed by Josiah George
September 19-27, Hunt Building, Nashua NH
Join Yellow Taxi Productions for this special event helmed by the director of our successful October 2006 production The Countess. This time the truth about German conductor Wilhelm Furtwangler is examined in this fact-based script penned by Ronald Harwood writer of The Pianist and The Dresser.
It is 1946 Germany and the Americans have arrived to root out Nazi party members. Major Steve Arnold (played by Doug Chilson who YTP audiences will recognize from The Countess, Clean Alternatives and Six Nights in the Black Belt) can't forget the horror he saw at Bergen Belsen and now he will make Furtwangler pay for those atrocities. But was Furtwangler (played by David White who played Ruskin Sr. in The Countess) truly a Nazi or is he just a musician who cares more about his art than religion and politics? As Arnold's investigation deepens so does the mystery.
Performances are Friday, September 19 at 8pm, Saturday, September 20 at 4 & 8pm, Sunday, September 21 at 4pm, Thursday, September 25 at 8pm, Friday, September 26 at 8pm and Saturday September 27 at 4 & 8pm. Seating is reserved and tickets range from $25 for adults to $15 for seniors and students. Tickets are available at theatermania.com. Group sale rates are available and can be purchased by contacting YTP at 603-791-4558.
The Hunt Memorial Building is located at 6 Main Street where Amherst and Main meet at the top of Main Street. Parking is behind on Clinton Street and is free at night and on the weekends. The full cast consists of Arthur Barlas, Doug Chilson John Decareau, Andrea DeFeo, Katie Rolph and David White. The design team includes Brendan Doyle, Sound Designer, Angela Pitrone, Costume Designer, and Matt Whiton, Lighting Designer.
