Dylan Thomas Coffeehouse Cabaret
Posted by DCA Theater on September 11, 2009 in July-December 2009 Season, Under Milk Wood
On Wednesday night Caffeine Theatre packed the mezzanine of the Storefront Theater for their Dylan Thomas Coffeehouse Cabaret. It was a wonderful mix of performances - from poetry readings to monolgoues, from songs to dance and movement pieces. A few of the pieces performed came to the Coffeehouse from Caffeine’s Rev. Eli Jenkins’ Five & Country Senses Poetry Competition with some of the pieces coming from as far away as Swansea, Wales and County Cork, Ireland.
The performers included: Nick Rudall, Carey Burton, Charles Filipov, Ian Randall, Jeremy van Meter, Caitlin McKechney, Myron Silberstein, Pat Hofmann, Erik Schnitger, Paul Fagen, Kevin Smith, Robin Metz, Daniel Smith, Caitlin Collins, Bronwen Prosser, Rebecca Prescott and Catherine Glynn.
If you haven’t made it yet, there is still time to see Under Milk Wood, the show that served as the inspiration for the Coffeehouse. Under Milk Wood is running in the Storefront Theater through September 27.
