Posted on Apr 30 2012
The Friends of the Art’s last play of the year is coming up!
The Anthony Shaffer mystery, Sleuth, will be performed on May 4 and 5, starting at 7pm, and on May 6, with a matinee performance starting at 3pm. These dates are one week later than originally planned and as announced in the season tickets.
The play will take place at the Dolphin Theater, Building T, at Marianas High School. The two-actor play is an entertaining mystery pitting Leo Goode, a veteran FOA performer and singer, against Bernard Rivera, who last performed with FOA in 2006 in La Cage aux Folles.
Leo played El Gallo in The Fantasticks, performed in I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, as Athos in The Three Musketeers and, most recently, quieted the audience singing Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar in FOA’s 2011 Andrew Lloyd Weber: Beyond Memories production, as well as performing in several other programs.
Ticket prices remain at $12 for FOA adult members, $15 for adult non-members and $8 for students and children over four years of age. Season ticket holders, of course, are prepaid.
Sleuth was awarded the Tony Award for Best Play and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Performance with Anthony Quayle and Keith Baxter from the original production cast. The play was adapted for film in 1972, starring Laurence Olivier and Michael Caine, and released again in 2007, starring Michael Caine and Jude Law in the role of Milo Tindle, originally played by Caine in the 1972 version.
