Barksdale Theatre 2011-12 Season

Robert Meganck just completed the design and illustrations for the Barksdale Theatre’s 2011-12 season.




LEND ME A TENOR
It’s 1934, and Cleveland’s premiere opera producer is on the verge of a break¬down. The tickets are sold, the stage is set, and the orchestra is ready. But, it’s about to become un disastro gigantesco, because the leading man - the greatest tenor in the world - has gone missing.





MY FAIR LADY
My Fair Lady is a musical adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s play, Pygmalion. The story concerns Eliza Doolittle, who takes speech lessons from professor Henry Higgins, and her transformation from a flower girl to a proper lady.





GOD OF CARNAGE
When two little boys scuffle on the playground, their progressive parents meet to sort things out in a civilized manner. By evening’s end, all hope is lost.





SCORCHED EARTH
A small, rural Virginia community is torn apart when the tiny body of a stillborn, mixed-race baby is exhumed from the graveyard, and the neighboring church is burned to the ground.





SPRING AWAKENING
Spring Awakening examines the unbridled energy that ignites the journey from youth to adulthood.
