Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike

  Directed by:  David Crespy, Summer Repertory Theatre MU, Summer 2015 .

Concept:  This show was set in the modern era with some fun costumes. Masha was a glamorous aging diva, Sonia a shy never been kissed type, and Vanya a man longing for simpler days were joined by Spike who's greatest pleasure is stripping for whoever will watch, and Nina, the pretty young thing from next door for a family reunion and a costume party.  The psychic housekeeper conveniently names Cassandra tried to help these people along the way.  Those clothes here needed to tell the story and convey age and a range of envies in the characters.  In the end, family was family.
