THE UNFORGETTABLE WHATSHISNAME A reading of an original play 
Written by Myles GansfriedDirected by Sherry Asch

Two WWII comrades, who have lived separate lives for fifty-five years accidentally meet, stirring memories of youth, glory, and romance. The present, fraught with disappointments and irrelevance is no place for these ex-flyers who can't quite believe that they are not still in the gush of youth. When they conspire to relive the past, their futures are altered by a daring, and touching venture. As the boundaries of youth and maturity are blurred we are transported to a realization of the joy of life itself. This hilarious romp was written by Myles Gansfried whose comedy, Milton and the Minotaur was a sold-out hit during the Barn's 2007 season. Sherry Asch, who directed the hugely successful RTB productions of Sleuth and The Sunshine Boys as well as Milton and the Minotaur, is directing the reading of The Unforgettable Whathisname.   

The Play Reading Series features readings of original works which are followed by "talk back" sessions with the playwright, director, and cast.  The audience learns about the artistic process and provides suggestions to the playwright on how to improve the play.

WHOSE BARN IS IT ANYWAY? Featuring the Role in the Hay PlayersWelcome to the wacky world of improvisational comedy! No scripts, no plot. Performers create their lines and actions spontaneously, often in response to suggestions from you, the studio audience. Unrehearsed. Off the cuff. Spur-of-the-moment. Which means anything can happen, and usually does! The Role in the Hay Players—the RTB's resident improv troupe—have perfected the art of ad lib. Similar in concept to the hilarious TV show Whose Line Is It Anyway?, the entertaining evening combines stand-up comedy and game show. You'll laugh 'til your sides hurt!

Due to the spontaneous nature of improvisation, performances may contain adult language and themes that may not be suitable for some children. Parental discretion is advised.
