For my first directing credit at the Nevada Conservatory Theatre, I will stage Samuel Beckett’s Happy Days, which runs September 11–17 in the Black Box Theatre at the Nevada Conservatory Theatre and will later move to the Vegas Theatre Company theatre in downtown Las Vegas.
Here’s the season announcement and the show’s presentation:
“Buried waist-deep in a mound of earth, the ever chatty, seemingly optimistic, and resilient Winnie reminisces about happier days. Time, marriage, disappointment, and existence collide in Samuel Beckett’s absurdist tragicomedy masterpiece. This dazzling one woman tour-de-force production is a relentless existential search to find meaning in relationships that bind one person to another and to times past, times present, and the future. Featuring the effervescent Kymberly Luke Mellen as Winnie, Happy Days is produced in partnership with Vegas Theatre Company.
