SF Olympians

With the new year almost upon us, the folks here at SF Olympians wanted to announce that one of this past year’s plays, HERMES by Bennett Fisher, will be receiving a twelve performance run starting March 3rd and running till March 26th, 2011.

The show will be performed at the Exit Stage Left, under the direction of Sleepwalkers’ (https://www.sleepwalkerstheatre.com/) impresario Tore Ingersoll-Thorp. Liz Conley, who designed the HERMES poster for the 2010 festival will return to design new graphics for the production. Cast members Juliana Egley, Carl Lucania and Lauren Spencer will reprise their roles from the original staged reading, to be joined by Geoffrey Nolan, Brian Markley and Brian Tryborn.

Keep your eye on this site for more information and look for ticket sales to open up early in 2011!

Here it is! The new line up of writers and subjects for the 2011 San Francisco Olympians Festival as it leaps off Olympus and into the star-crossed mayhem of classical astronomy!
