EARLY CHEKHOV HITS THE FRINGE

The Marriage Proposal by Anton Chekhov

view project

Los Angeles Theatre Factory Studio is pleased to present one of Anton Chekhov’s earliest works, “The Marriage Proposal.” This one act farce is under the direction of Elena Vannoni, Artistic Director for the Theatre Factory Studio. Elena brings a wealth of directorial and dance expertise to her version of a classic play that is sure to bring lots of laughs to Holly Fringe Audiences. Elena masterfully weaves creative movement patterns, comic Lazzi, and vibrant staging to a play with timeless, universal themes that audiences from any background can grasp. Elena is supported by Producer Alessia Patregani, Associate Producer and Assistant Director, Clayton Guiltner, and graphic designer Vicky D’Incecco.

Featuring veteran LA Theatre actor Tony Gatto as the boisterous Stepan Chubukov, along with NYU trained Meghan McGarry as his daughter Natalya, these two bring a life and energy to an otherwise drab 1890’s family. New to LA, Dustin Wilfert, plays the love-sick, hypochondriac Ivan Lomov. He brings great comic timing and an enduring portrayal of Lomov that evokes a chemistry on stage with the cast that is simply fun to watch.

Los Angeles Theatre Factory Studio is a new cultural center that promotes a creative theatrical experience, offering workshops, classes, and support for both professional artists and artists who are just embarking upon theatre studies.
