Curtains Just Going Up...
Vincent -- Theatre Du Jour opens its newest offering on Wednesday, March 4th. Written by Leonard Nimoy (yes, of Mr. Spock fame) this one-man show is based upon hundreds of letters written between Vincent Van Gogh and his brother Theo. The play is set one week after the tragic death of Van Gogh and sees his brother trying to rescue the painter's legacy. The production, which runs until March 29th at DCAC, is directed by and stars Theatre Du Jour's artistic director B. Stanley. (see below for PWYC information)
