Curse of the Starving Class
IndyFringe Theatre
Two Weekends Only!
Dates: November 20, 21, 22 and December 4, 5, 6.
Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, Sundays at 3pm. Arrive a half hour early to party and dance to bluegrass music! For reservations call 317-522-1945. Tickets are just $10.
Fast-paced, highly theatrical, and quintessentially American, Obie winner Curse of the Starving Class takes the age-old melodramatic device of “losing the farm” and turns it on its head. Dad is an absentee alcoholic and Mom is fed up. Their feisty daughter is ready to leave home and lead a life of adventure; and their melancholic son is ineffectual in his attempts to hold the family together. Already in trouble from the forces within the family, they are further assaulted by an array of shady characters intruding upon their not-so-quiet household. You will not want to miss this high-octane performance of one of our greatest American playwright’s most daring and original plays.
Weston (John Joyner) and Ella (Gail Bray) argue in Sam Shepard's Curse of the Starving Class, opening November 20th at the IndyFringe Theatre
Trina Hamlin, Singer Songwriter
8pm - Saturday, November 28 at IndyFringe Theatre
New York singer/songwriter Trina Hamlin returns for her third show in Indianapolis. In 1998, Trina released her first solo album, titled Alone. "Keeping Me Whole," "Half Blind," "Angel," and "Flower Days" are some of the folk-rock numbers on this debut. A few of her songs were featured on the popular prime-time show Dawson's Creek. Hamlin's second album, Living Room, was released in 2000 and carries tracks like "Can't Put My Finger on It," "Discontent," "Down to the Hollow," and "A Second Thought to Why." She returned to recording two years later, self-releasing Foundation through her website. Much of Hamlin's music is more than folk-rock. Fans will catch hints of styles from R&B, to country, to blues in works by this talented artist.
