The Waterfront Playhouse season continues……. With a twist!

The Waterfront Playhouse, whose production of the hit musical Priscilla Queen of the Desert, was cut short due to the pandemic, has taken a twist in offering Key West entertainment options.

Following the highly successful broadcast of The 39 Steps: A Radio Play, the theater will present a radio treatment of Sunset Blvd.. on Saturday May 16 at 8pm on US1Radio(https://us1radio.com/), 104.1 FM. Featuring Christopher Peterson, Brandon Beach, Laura Richardson, Willie Alsedek, David Black and John McDonald. Tune in to 104.1 at 8pm.

Then at 8pm May 30, Neil LaBute’s BASH will be live streamed from Wonderdog Studios. Patrons can go to https://vimeo.com/wonderstudios to log in for the stream (more information to come).

Directed by John McDonald, Bash is a series of three provocative one-act plays that examines the complexities of evil in everyday life. The first, Iphigenia in Orem, Ross Pipkin, a businessman confides to a stranger in a Las Vegas hotel room about a chilling crime; the second, Medea Redux, Lauren Thompson relates her complex and ultimately tragic relationship with her high school English teacher; and in A Gaggle of Saints, a young couple, Arthur Crocker and Belle Jampol, separately recount the violent events of an anniversary weekend in New York City. Bash was originally scheduled in April as a selection in the Waterfront’s On the Edge Series.

Then on June 13, a radio treatment of All About Eve will hit the air on 104.1 US1Radio Key West at 8pm.
