This has been a fantastic year for Impact actors and playwrights past and present so far, what with Joshua Huston going on in The Pillowman at Berkeley Rep and Peter Sinn Nachtrieb winning the prestigious Will Glickman Award. Now we have two more Impactians who are movin' on up: Enrique Urueta and Noah James Butler!
Enrique, a contributor to Impact Briefs 6 and our former literary manager (he's now studying with Paula Vogel in the Brown University MFA program) will have his play Learn to Be Latina in Aurora Theatre's 2007 Global Age Project, a series of play readings designed to highlight important new works. Who else is featured in the series? Some dude named Craig Lucas, for one. The reading is Monday, May 7 at 7:30pm at the Aurora, on Addison St. in Berkeley, just up the street from Berkeley Rep. Tickets are free, but they're first-come, first-served.
Speaking of Berkeley Rep, you can catch Noah James Butler (whose Impact credits include Scab, Macbeth, and Money & Run, among many others) on the Roda stage in Berkeley Rep's current adaptation of Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse.
Just goes to show you, when you come to Impact, you could be seeing tomorrow's theatre luminaries in the most intimate setting possible. Mazel tov, Enrique and Noah!
Don't forget founding Artistic Director, Josh Costello, who is now Marin Theatre Company's Artistic Director for Expanded Programs, and Joy Meads, whose new official title is, I think, "Queen of Cal Shakes." ;-)
