Tacoma Little Theatre’S ‘OFF THE SHELF’ presents
MEN OF TORTUGA
Tacoma, WA- Tacoma Little Theatre's Off the Shelf program is excited to
present Jason Wells’ *Men of Tortuga, *directed by Frank Roberts, and
featuring some of the Pacific Northwest’s finest actors. This production
will play Thursday, January 26, 2023, at 7:30pm.
Four men conspire to defeat a despised opponent by firing a missile into a
crowded conference room on the day of an important meeting. Maxwell, a hero
of the old guard, volunteers to sacrifice himself for the plan. Then
Maxwell meets Fletcher, an idealist with a "Compromise Proposal" designed
to resolve all conflicts. Maxwell regards the Compromise as hopeless, but
he develops a liking for Fletcher - a distressing fact when Maxwell learns
that, if the conspiracy proceeds, young Fletcher will be among the dead.
As the scheme spins wildly into complication, the plotters descend into
suspicion, bloodlust, and raucous infighting; while Fletcher is drawn,
inexorably, into the lions' den.
Men of Tortuga features the talents of: Mason Quinn, Joseph Grant, Jed
Slaughter, Gunnar Johnson, and Mikel Michener.
Tickets for the January 26, 2023 performance at 7:30pm are $10.00 for non
TLT Members, and FREE for those who are members. Tickets may be purchased
online at www.tacomalittletheatre.com, or by calling our Box Office at
(253) 272-2281.
TLT's OFF THE SHELF
We know that there is a tremendous amount of wonderful theatre that
deserves to be heard but sometimes just doesn’t get an opportunity. With
“Off the Shelf”, local directors and actors will be bringing some scripts
to life that we hope you will find entertaining, challenging and
educational to our stage. We hope that you’ll sit back and enjoy an evening
of theatre. You never know, you might see one of these shows on our
mainstage in the future.
