Sex Comes Later....

A message from Bruce Miller regarding Sex - actually regarding the upcoming show No Sex Please, We're British:
Bruce Miller, Artistic Director of Barksdale Theatre and director of No Sex Please, We're British, announced this morning that he is canceling the first week of No Sex and postponing the opening to Thursday, May 4. Within the scheduled three-week rehearsal period, approximately half of the rehearsals have been cancelled due to cast illness and other conflicts. "No Sex Please requires a great deal of fast comic precision," Miller says, "and it's impossible to carry out these antics safely without adequate rehearsal." Barksdale is sending $10 vouchers to all those who hold tickets for the cancelled performances. The vouchers are good for any upcoming performances at Barksdale Hanover Tavern, Barksdale Willow Lawn, Barksdale at Steward School, and Theatre IV. Barksdale's production of Syringa Tree and Theatre IV's production of Beauty and the Beast are both opening this evening as scheduled. Ticket holders for the cancelled performances of No Sex Please will be rescheduled into the performance of their choice later in the run. In addition to letters being mailed today, the Box Office will begin calling ticket holders tomorrow with news of the cancellations.

I'm looking forward to catching this production no matter when it arrives to Barksdale. Nice to know that actors are human, too, I wish everyone good health through closing.
