Cast Announced for THE MILKY WAY CABARET

We are into our second week of rehearsals for The Milky Way Cabaret, and the actors are doing some really wonderful work. I am always encouraged when actors make brave choices and aren't afraid to show themselves, to be vulnerable, and to totally live in the moment (and to be precise about these things).

So far, this group has been pretty good at digging deep and trusting themselves, and each rehearsal has taken us a little bit deeper into the lives of these strange and heart-breaking characters.

I've given these actors the challenge of playing:

A woman who travels through black holes
An alcoholic with magic powers
Two assassins in clown clothes-- one of them just out of prison, the other without a heart
A former Homecoming Queen
A sadistic night-club owner
A seven year-old with magic powers

We see these guys travel through time and space while eating fruit, fail at magic tricks and drink elephant piss, put out cigarettes on each others' faces, hula-hoop like a dream, beat each other with dildos, and make necklaces appear out of thin air.

It's been a wild ride and it will only get better.

And for that, I love these guys:

TRAVLIN' ALICE...............Cherie A. Roberts

ARNIE...........................Daniel Higbee

BUZZ............................Steven Wright

CHARLOTTE....................Katy O'Leary

LORRAINE......................Brittany Brazill

MR. BOSS.......................Tom Wang

LITTLE ALICE..................Brenna the Magnificent

The rest of the awesome creative team will be announced soon.
