Charley's Aunt is in full swing at ICTC, much to the delight of audience members. This classical farce written by Brandon Thomas in 1892 is, according to ICTC's Producing Director Fortunato Pezzimenti, very physical and very funny.

"We've been busy, and the Buffalo Theatre Alliance, in a magnanimous gesture, has allowed for Studio Arena tickets to be honored here, so we've had a full house since we opened," Pezzimenti said. He added that the audience has been enjoying it, marveling at the fact that so many of the play's themes such as arranged marriage and chaperones are outmoded, while the basic premise of "college kids gone wild" is familiar and amusing to everyone.

"There are cases of mistaken identity and a whole series of events that mesh deeper and deeper, and then there is the major theme of love. Scenes alternate between romance and chaos as the play unfolds, and the second act unravels at a rapid pace," Pezzimenti said. Add in some cross dressing, mistaken identity and one of the most lovely proposal scenes ever written, and, as Pezzimenti said, "You have all the angles of love."

Featuring Andrew Kenneth Moss, Neal Moeller, David Autovino, Peter Palmisano, Richard Wesp and others.

    ICTC has their act together and i give them props. Neal Meoller is great in CA.

    The only thing that would make it better would be if Tim Tielman said so. Lets all bow to this almighty proletarian. BR blogger unite: down with capitalism, rejoice Marxism:

    Getting back to the subject at hand, ICTC rocks and demands your financial support, so search for some change somewhere in all that wilt in your pocket and get out and support it, or spew your redistribution of wealth bs so we can give back to all the lazy people who burden us all and live off the system anyway.
