Barnstable Comedy Club members who get the familiar feeling during next Tuesday night's Monthly Workshop production that 'this is where they came In', will be quite right.
But with a difference!
For on that night - Jan. 19 - fwo separate performances of Edivard Albee's short play "The Sandbox" will be given by two Separate casts, currently being Secretly rehearsed by two separate directors,
David Laning and
Bruce Martin.
Those who have sat in a theatre and wondered how a particular play might have looked with a different set of characters, can now see for themselves.
And the unique double exposure is being rehearsed with the utmost care to avoid any possible clash ln which any influence from the one might drift over to the other.
David Laning, one of the two directors (recently seen as Scrooge in LarryLippard's warmhearted musical version of Dickens' Christmas Carol) has chosen for his cast
Elizabeth Edwards,
David Jones,
Paul Pina,
Bettina Dinsmore and
Louis Jacobucci.
And
Bruce Martin, the other director (you may have seen him as the youthful Troilus in "Tiger at the Gates" ) has assembled as his cast
Barbara Cotton,
Nancy Sears,
John Gunther,
Ted Arms and
Ralph Weston.
Comparisons, of course, are going to be inevitable - but that, after all, is one of the unusual privileges associated with the whole idea.
The time Is 8 pm next Tuesday, Jan. 19, at the Village Hall in Barnstable.
And while the show is primarily for club members, guest tickets may be bought at the door for a dollar each.

"So, look. Miss Andrews."
"Yes."
"You understand this is a very serious charge to bring against anyone."
"Yes."
"Let alone your own brother."
"Yes."
"It never happened."
"Well, actually, it kind of totally did."
"You are deluded."
"Well, that may be, but I would submit that my mental health history is a result of having stuff like that done to me in the first place."
"You lie."
"I don't, actually. In fact, this is the first...
Dreamstory, Chapter One: What Happens At The End
By Velveteen Andrews
"What?!"
"I didn't say anything."
"How can you say such a thing?"
"I'm not going through this again."
"What do you mean?"
"All this -- denial. I'm done. I'm just going to say exactly what happened as I remember it."
"It never happened!"
"The reason I know it happened is that I renember it. I was eight years old. My brother was twelve years old. I was able to recover the date because I remember at some point in the week preceding the event, our father for some reason had told us, I'm going to be speaking at the Unitarian Church this Sunday at 11:00. It did not seem weird to me at the time, because he was always out of the house anyway. Plus all he used to when he was home was harangue me, so good."
"You lie."
"In fact, I remember thinking, it made sense that he would get something going on Sundays, because that was the only time he was ever even around anymore. Weekdays he was working, of course, and weeknights he was always at one of his many, many important community ...
