Celeste and Starla, the starfish, have a mystery on
their calendar
marked with a capital M! Or do they? You see, Celeste
has a bad
memory, so sometimes she only thinks there’s a mystery,
while other
times she thinks about love...or lampreys...or Latin
dancing for days and days. Oh
wait! She just remembered! She does have a mystery! Kim
Kelsey Kirkpatrick has hired her to find his son Todd,
so she sets off in her swinging roadster to find him.
Local playwright (and Fuse Theatre Ensemble member)
Francesca Sanders, is thrilled that Portland audiences
will get to see what The Capital Times called "A
colorful, high-energy piece that's funny, smart and a
great choice for all ages."
This three actor play revolves Celeste, who is, as
playwright Sanders says, "A cross between Nancy Drew and
Alice in Wonderland." Not a parody of either, she is
like both: imaginative, inquisitive, earnest and
charming.
The third role in the play, Someone or Anyone, requires
the actor to play over thirty different characters, both
male and female, including a boxer, a Carmen Miranda
wanna-be, a subversive villain and a lepidopterist.
For our production, two actors - a male and a
female - will perform the role of Someone or Anyone on
different nights.
Which play you see depends on which night you come.
You say you want to come more than once? Have we got a
deal for you! See Celeste & Starla once and
get in FREE the next time when you bring a friend!
More details on your first visit.
