2016 Capital Fringe Preview #27: ‘PowerPlays’ by Michelle Rago

Local, middle-aged playwrights become first-time Fringers

They’re eager. They’re excited. They’re budding playwrights. Oh, and some of them are retired. Five local playwrights, somewhat older than most of their fellow Fringe artists, are staging their first Fringe production. The playwrights, known as the Gang of Five, met at the Writer’s Center in Bethesda and have been talking about doing Fringe for years. Well, they’re finally doing it!

PowerPlays includes five short plays that explore how we win, lose, and try to control the truth in our relationships.

Featuring:  Keith Anderson, Marilyn Bennett, Louis Lavoie, Dwane Starlin, Emily Sucher
