Rover Dramawerks' 2007-2008 Season


Two Rooms
by Lee Blessing
directed by Beth Hargrove

November 1-17, 2007

Michael, an American hostage in Beirut and his wife back in the states, spend their anxious time imagining each other, the letters they would write, and the conversations they should have, he in his prison cell and she in his former study that she has stripped bare to resemble her husband's stark confinement. Alone except for their devotion to each other, the outside world of media and politics mercilessly strips their world as bare as the rooms they inhabit until truly all they have is the guarded place inside each other's hearts.
Two Rooms is a political love story you won't want to miss.


An Infinite Ache
by David Schulner
directed by Lisa Devine

January 17 - February 9, 2008

What if this is the one?

Hope and Charles are a pair of lonely
twenty-somethings about to end a supremely
uninteresting first date. But just as they say
good night, the myriad possibilities of their
futures and a life shared together come
rushing to meet them. From their first kiss to
their first child, from a horrible tragedy to a
second chance, each moment moves with
breath-taking speed. A love story about
time and the infinite directions in which
two lives can travel.
One Day Only 11!
Rover returns with our famous 24-hour play
festivals at the Courtyard Theatre!

Seven short plays concept to curtain in just ONE DAY!

The Runner Stumbles

by Milan Stitt
directed by Jason Rice

April 3-26, 2008

A Priest. A Nun. A Scandal.

A young nun has died under mysterious circumstances, and Father Rivard has been charged with her murder. The ambitious young priest was sent to a quiet rural parish and assigned an energetic young nun to manage the school turning his dreary world inside out. Suddenly they both disappear. Interrogations, testimony, and flashbacks reveal that their relationship was doomed from the start, but not until the explosive and surprising climax of the play is the full extent of their sacrifice made clear and the identity of the murderer revealed.

The Musical

Book by

Mary's Wedding

by Stephen Massicotte
directed by Lisa Devine

July 10 - August 2, 2008**

Stephen Massicotte's first full-length play and
winner of the 2000 Alberta Playwriting Competition
and the 2002 Betty Mitchell Award for Best New Play.

Set in Canada immediately before, during, and after World War I,
Mary's Wedding is a story of two young lovers told as flashbacks
within a dream. Unbound by time, unabashedly romantic, and
distinctly contemporary in theatrical style and setting, this beautiful
love story has captivated regional theaters for the past few years
and once you see it, you will know precisely why.

Lisa Devine, Chicago Jeff Award nominated director,
theatre instructor, and director of Rover's Private Eyes and An Infinite Ache returns to direct a piece she personally adores.

**Originally announced as running July 17-Aug 9.

One Day Only 12!
Rover 's second installment this year of our famous 24-hour
play festivals at the Courtyard Theatre!


Seven short plays concept to curtain in just ONE DAY!

A white-knuckle Mach-2 ride through
everything you love and hate about theatre.

August 30, 2008


Shakespeare in Hollywood
by Ken Ludwig
directed by
Carol M. Rice

September 11 - October 4, 2008

It's 1934, and Shakespeare's most famous fairies, Oberon and Puck, have magically materialized on the Warner Bros. Hollywood set of Max Reinhardt's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Instantly smitten by the glitz and glamour of show biz, the two are ushered onto the silver screen to play (who else?) themselves. With a little help from a feisty flower, blonde bombshells, movie moguls, and arrogant "asses" are tossed into loopy love triangles, with raucous results.
