EMERALD COAST THEATRE COMPANY ADD ADDS AN ADDITIONAL PERFORMANCE OF “BAD DATES”
2019-03-09
Miramar Beach, Fla. (March 8, 2019) — Emerald Coast Theatre Company (ECTC) has added an additional performance of “Bad Dates” on Sunday, March 10 at 6:30 p.m.
The one-woman show starring Jennifer Steele has sold out three of four performances since it opened the Northwest Florida premiere of Theresa Rebeck’s comeey on Thursday, March 7.
ECTC’s performance space is located at 560 Grand Boulevard (upstairs) in Grand Boulevard at Sandestin, located in Miramar Beach, Florida.
The story centers around restaurant manager and shoe connoisseur, Haley Walker, who is finally ready to re-enter the dating world. From the privacy of her bedroom, she relates a series of hilarious tales while preparing for, and recovering from, one dreadful date after another. A 2003 off-Broadway hit, this premier production of Theresa Rebeck’s sharp comedy will be the hottest date night in town and a triumphant night out for women of all ages
"The audience was so full of laughter and energy on opening night. We hate to think anyone that wanted to see this show would miss it,” said ECTC producing artistic director Nathanael Fisher.
Whitney Rappana is guest director for this one-woman cast featuring Jennifer Steele as Haley.
Rappana is a director and actor working in Chicago. Before moving to Chicago, she taught acting and music lessons in Virginia Beach, Virginia, while receiving her MFA in acting with a directing concentration. Other directing credits include “No Exit,” “By the Light of Day,” “True West,” “Not Enough Rope,” “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” “Love Poem #98,” “West Side Story,” “Until I Return,” and “The Disorientation of Butterflies.”
Jennifer Steele is returning to the stage after a 10-year hiatus during which she has been served as leader of the Cultural Arts Alliance (CAA) of Walton County. Steele is the co-founder of The Rep Theatre in Seaside, Florida, where she played various roles during her eight years with the company, including Patsy Cline in “Always, Patsy Cline,” Germaine in “Picasso at the Lapin Agile,” Meg in “Crimes of the Heart,” Hermia in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” Isabel in “The Fisherman and his Wife,” and Cathy Hiatt in “The Last Five Years.” Steele holds a BFA from Valdosta State University, where she studied arts and theater management, the passion for which has remained with her the past two decades, while serving as The Rep’s managing director, the executive director of the CAA, the co-producer of the 30A Songwriters Festival, and on several local, statewide, and national councils and committees as an arts advocate. She lives with her family in Point Washington.
Costume design is by ECTC associate artistic director Anna Fisher. The production is stage managed by Bridgett Bryant. Set, sound and lighting design is by Storm Hooten.
There are tickets left for Sunday, March 10 at 2 p.m. Running time is 90 minutes. This production is for mature audiences.
Theater patrons are encouraged to come early (doors open at 6:30 p.m.) to browse artwork by local artists showcased in the ECTC Lobby Gallery curated by Lori Drew, founder of Lowkylzart. A portion of proceeds from each sale benefits ECTC and its education outreach and scholarship programs.
Tickets are $30 for adults; $28 for seniors (55 years old and up) students, and military. Purchase tickets online at emeraldcoastheatre.org/tickets or call (850) 684-0323.
