 -PYGMALION & GALATEA: A COMEDY OF EROS by: J.S. Puller Come (enjoy/join) a hilarious new comedy by the playwright who brought you “The Death of Robin Hood” in 2021, J.S. Puller. “Pygmalion and Galatea: A Comedy of Eros” is based on the ancient Greek myth but rounded out into a fun comedy with surprisingly modern characters. Expect wit, pratfalls, mistaken identities, and perhaps a few heartfelt lessons about Love and Loss along the way. Coming to the RFA Lakeside Theater this June!

PRODUCTION DATES: June 28th, 29th, & 30th 

PRODUCTION CREW: Director- Brittany Weatherill Producers- Millie Hoekstra and Valerie Zapolsky 

SYNOPSIS: When grieving widower Pygmalion carved a sculpture of his late wife, Galatea, he never anticipated that his clumsy and blustering kid sister, Phoebe, would accidentally bring it to life with a prayer to the goddess Aphrodite. But once the suddenly-living statue is unleashed on the world, kings and commoners alike are convinced that Pygmalion is a miracle-worker who can bring back the dead. Suddenly, he’s charged with the task of restoring the King’s dead wife. Pygmalion lacks the power to fulfill the role expected of him, and between falling for a princess, struggling against a jealous rival, and repairing his damaged relationship with Phoebe–who he blames for his wife’s death–he’s in over his head.

Those wishing to be involved with the production in any other way: We need people on costumes, people on sets, people on props, people on sound effects, people on lights, people as stage crew, people on makeup, even someone to just take notes for me! We are even looking for people to run a media campaign- we will be filming some rehearsals to cut into commercials and bits on TikTok.
