Michael Ritchie, artistic director of Center Theatre Group, has set the 2010-2011 season at CTG’s Kirk Douglas Theatre in Culver City. The new season, which features three productions and four DouglasPlus presentations, will run from Oct. 7, through Aug. 28, 2011.
This seventh season at the Kirk Douglas Twill include the world premiere of a CTG-commissioned musical by Eric Rosen and Matt Sax, Venice; an acclaimed Irish production of the The Cripple Of Inishmaan by Martin McDonagh; and one of the biggest hits of the 2009 off-Broadway season, This by Obie-winning playwright Melissa James Gibson.
In addition, DouglasPlus at the theatre will host four events: Tim Crouch’s shattering new work, The Author; the new memory piece Juan And John by solo performance artist Roger Guenveur Smith; the celebrated theatre collective Rude Mechs and their work The Method Gun; and for family fun, Jamie Adkins’ inventive Circus INcognitus.
