A Life in the Theatre

Sierra Stages and the Miners Foundry are pleased to present the May installment of Theater By the Book on May 11, 2022 in the Osborn/Woods hall at the Miners Foundry.  Doors open at 6:00 p.m., the Theatre opens at 6:30 p.m. and the Performance begins at 7:00 p.m.  The Miners Foundry offers a full bar with snacks available for purchase. Outside food may be brought into the venue but no outside alcohol or glass.

A Life in the Theatre, by David Mamet is a play reading directed by Jeffrey Mason with Paul Micsan and Chase Coney.

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “Glengarry Glen Ross” and “Speed-The-Plow” takes us into the lives of two actors: John, young and rising into the first flush of his success; and Robert, older, anxious, and beginning to wane.  In a series of slow, spare exchanges, we see the estrangement of youth from age and the wider, inevitable and endless cycle of life, in and out of the theatre.
