Tickets for The 2013-2014 Gadfly Season and Events
Precious Little by Madeleine George
Directed by: Immanuel Elliott
March 21-30, 2014 People's Center Theater 425 20th Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55454 Brodie, a gifted linguist, confident lesbian, and first time mom to be learns unsettling news about the baby she carries. Unable to get comfort from her girlfriend, she finds it in the two least likely sources imaginable: the elderly speaker of a vanishing language…and a gorilla at the zoo. Madeleine George’s irreverent and charming new play reveals the beauty and the limits of human language. Gadfly's production will utilize a minimalist set to evoke the different locations of the play and a small cast of three female identified actors (namely, Gadfly audience favorite Sondra Glynn, and new Gadflies Alana LaBissoniere and Joann Oudekerk) playing multiple characters to tell this magical and deeply moving story. |

This classic drama with a Gadfly twist this fall as director Cassandra Snow. This gives us a chance to examine the unfortunately still relevant racial politics of the piece, (and how double minorities get treated in society) as well as sexism, homophobia, biphobia, and what happens not only to minorities but to the innocent bystanders when patriarchal zealots refuse to let go.
In our production, villainous Iago stands for a small but vocal minority who sees the times changing, and refuses to let them--unfortunately for the rest of the characters Iago’s influence is still widespread and poisonous, and we see how that unfolds in tragic ways by the end.
