Flings & Eros
September 10- October 4, 2009
  WORLD PREMIERE!

Four men party at their own club of skills and muse of love in this creative retelling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.  When those four men are the internationally renowned Flying Karamazov Brothers, the evening is guaranteed to be one that resounds with music, antic dance, emotion, hilarity, unexpected twists and, of course, world-class juggling.

Flying K's Visit Lowell Spinners

On September 1, The Flying Karamazov Brothers were on hand at LeLacheur Park to entertain the crowd at the Lowell Spinners game, and throw out the first pitch. The highlight of the evening, however, was The  Brothers getting the chance to meet Red Sox legend Johnny Pesky, who had his number 6 retired by the Spinners during the game.

Merrimack Rep Named
Best Live Theater 2009

North Shore Magazine recently named Merrimack Repertory Theatre the Best Live Theater in its 2009 Best of North Shore list.

From www.nshoremag.com, "It was a tough year for performing arts venues. However, the show must go on and for the past 30 years, it been doing that and much more at the Merrimack Repertory Theatre. Director Charles Towers, through memorable productions, a busy calendar, education programs, and local partnerships, has helped to make this theatre the top stage on the North Shore."

 
Dresser World Premiere Titled
 
Merrimack Repertory Theatre is excited to announce it has received the first draft and title for playwright Richard Dresser's newest play, The Last Days of Mickey and Jean.  Commissioned by Merrimack Rep Artistic Director Charles Towers, the new original comedy is a retirement story with a twist.  Constantly on the run with his no-longer young girlfriend, an aging fugitive mobster, Mickey, is forced into early retirement, taking him away from the one thing he truly loves - his work.  Merrimack Repertory Theatre will conduct readings and workshops of The Last Days of Mickey and Jean script before its fully staged premiere, which begins previews March 18, with opening night on March 21, and runs through April 11, 2010.  Charles Towers is scheduled to direct the production.
