NEW ORLEANS – The NOLA Project theatre company is, once again, ALIIIIIVE on Lafitte Greenway.
Everyone’s favorite creation gets the Pete McElligott (“THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW,” “DRACULA”) treatment in “FRANKENSTEIN,” a world premiere filled with chemistry, electricity, andnlots and lots shouting.
“Pete’s plays are unique in that they’re hilarious, of course, but also full of tremendous amounts of heart,” said “FRANKENSTEIN” director Leslie Claverie. “We are so excited to return to the Greenway for another funny and fast-paced story during spooky season!”
Leslie Claverie (“THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW,” “DRACULA”) directs fellow NOLA Project members James Bartelle, Keith Claverie, Michael Aaron Santos, Matthew Thompson and Kristin Witt as well as local performers J’aiLa Christina, Noah Hazzard and Keyara Milliner.
“FRANKENSTEIN” will be the third NOLA Project production to be staged at the Greenway Station. Season 19’s “DRACULA” and “SHAKESPEARE’S TEMPEST, REIMAGINED” saw great turnout from the community.
“Partnering with Lafitte Greenway lets us turn a public space into a stage,” said NOLA Project Artistic Director Tenaj Wallace. “Our hope is that neighbors, families, and audiences – whether it’s their first play or their fiftieth – will feel like this type of community rooted theatre, that The NOLA Project is committed to, belongs to them, too.”
“FRANKENSTEIN” will be presented Oct. 2-17 at 436 N Norman C Francis Parkway. Seating is bring-your-own general admission – camping chairs are recommended for the outdoor, concrete venue. All performances start at 7:30 p.m. For detailed schedule, tickets and more, visit NOLAProject.com.
