Abby Paige Says Hello - AND gives us a little "Les Filles Du Quoi?"

This August, (August 20-30 to be exact), Lost Nation Theater was to present beloved colleague Abby Paige in the premiere professional production of her new solo show. We've previously presented Abby's "When We Were French" - and of course you remember her from all three David Budbill's Judevine, plus Tartuffe and most recently Pride & Prejudice. We are determined to bring Abby's show to LNT as soon as possible. Stay Tuned.  And for an in-depth interview with Abby, Kim Bent (LNT founder, and director of Les Filles Du Quoi?) and Charlotte Seelig (Les Filles lighting designer) join LNT's Patreon Page: www.patreon.com/lostnationtheater


 

The Brilliant Traces Ensemble Says Hello!

This July, Lost Nation Theater in the "before times" (that is, pre-covid 19) would have been presenting Cindy Lou Johnson's quirky play on the frontier of love, "Brilliant Traces". 

Since we couldn't do the show, we've done the next best thing, gotten the actors, director and production designer together to talk about the show, Vermont, and why they were excited to work on the piece. Join director (and LNT Founding Artistic Director) Kim Allen Bent, designer Ellen E Jones, and actors Nick Wheeler and Courtney Wood. (And a few glimpses of producing artistic director Kathleen Keenan.) (You may note Nick refers to Courtney as "the other hand" and the play as a "two-hander". "Two-Hander" is an industry term for a show with only two actors.) For the full interview/conversation, and a cold reading of a short excerpt from the play, join Lost Nation Theater's patreon page - https://patreon.com/lostnationtheater
