Recently I attended a non-Equity performance of ‘Cat on a Hot Tin Roof’ where a community theatre proudly displayed the quality work possible when the cast and crew just clicked with each other.

The East Side Players matched par on par this same task of creating highly dramatic and emotional intensity as well with their production of Ayad Akhtar’s Pulitzer Prize winning 2013 ‘Disgraced’ now onstage at The Papermill Theatre at Todmorden Mills. Director Mario D’Alimonte wrote in his Programme Note that he hoped audiences will find this story entertaining above all.
