A Tribute to David Mauriello
A WORLD PREMIERE SCREENING AND FOUR INVENTIVE ONE-ACTS
An exciting theatrical experience . . . and a tribute to one of the Seacoast’s most honored and revered playwrights!
For over 60 years, David Mauriello has explored the intricacies and the challenges of interpersonal relationships from the sexual to the platonic, from the curious to the pivotal, placing his characters in settings and situations that provide alternate perspectives to the audience experience. It is time to honor David for his creativity and for his courage in addressing important topics ahead of their time, and to thank him for his strong support of the Ring over its history.
Program:
