Manage episode 401269320 series 2841671
OmniArts Nebraska is gearing up to open their first production of the year, and their 12th season in 2024. This production isn't holding anything back and we spoke to two of the talented individuals involved in this play: Christian Novotny, Director - and Reed Westerhoff, who plays the main character, John.
This play, though visually simplistic in design and execution, is complex in story. John finds himself torn between his steady relationship with his boyfriend, and suddenly finds himself in love with a woman. There are only four actors performing in this play, along with Reed Westerhoff, the other actors are Stephen Buhler, Anthony Delaney, and Francoise Traxler. Costume design is by Sandra Zulkoski, Amelia Roth is stage manager, and technical direction is by Dustin Witte.
We had a lovely conversation with Christian and Reed about this play at The Mill at Innovation Campus, so join us in this podcast to learn more about them and this dramatic play. COCK won a Laurence Olivier Award in 2010 for an Outstanding Achievement in an Affiliate Theatre.
COCK opens February 22nd and runs through the 25th at the Johnny Carson Theater at the Lied Center for Performing Arts. It does contain adult themes and sexually explicit dialogue.
