The Actors Coop is the newest producing theater company in Austin, and it was founded (by, among others, KUT’s own business manager, Bob Cross) with the mission of providing opportunities for artists to polish and perform their craft. Openness is a big part of the coop’s goal, and they’re hoping to provide stage and tech time to folks who might not otherwise get the chance.
For their first stage production, the coop is mounting a performance of Side by Side by Sondheim at the Dougherty Arts Center. This tribute to the Broadway artist features nearly thirty of his works, including a number of well known songs, and some that aren’t quite so familiar. Side by Side by Sondheim‘s cast includes Joe Penrod, Cathie Sheridan, Angela Davis, Rodnesha Green, Daryn Eslinger, Glenn Bagley, and Melita McAtee. It’s directed by Barbara Schuler, with musical direction by David Blackburn and choreography by Michelle Stuckey.
