SUMMARY:"The Man Who Laughs" at The Players' Ring

His crowd-pleasing grin is a curse\, carved into his face when he was a child at the behest of a cruel\, vindictive king. When a beautiful duchess attends his show\, a secret from Gwynpalin’s past is revealed\, a secret that threatens to destroy everything he has built\, and everyone he holds dear. \nAdapted by the Ensemble from The Man Who Laughs by Victor Hugo\, with inspiration from the 1928 movie The Man Who Laughs\, directed by Paul Leni. \nWorld Premiere. \n\nCast\n\nWayne Asbury\nBen Bagley\nEmily Karel\nKatherine Proulx \n\n\n\nCreative Team\n\nDirector: Peter Josephson\nSet Design: Quentin Stockwell\nLighting Design: Tayva Young\nSound Design: Jonny Peiffer\nCostume Design: Zhana Morris \nOct. 17 – Nov. 2\, 2025\nThursdays at 7pm\nFridays* and Saturdays at 7:30pm\nSaturdays and Sundays at 2:30pm \n*With the exception of Friday\, October 31: 9 PM show following the Portsmouth Halloween Parade \nCurious about the process? The first Sunday matinee show (October 19) will be followed by an optional talkback with the director and cast! \nGeneral Admission: $32\nSeniors (65+)/Students/Veterans/First Responders: $29
