Hudson River Shakespeare Company

Hudson River Shakespeare Company The Hudson River Shakespeare Company is a Community Theater based in Hudson Falls, drawing talent and audience from Washington, Warren, and Saratoga Counties.

Our Philosophy
We believe the quality of a performance experience for both the audience and the performers is dependent on the material being performed and the sincerity with which it is presented. To that end we concentrate on classic literature, which has proven its beauty and truth by maintaining its human appeal through the ages. And to better express our sincerity, we maintain a clean, simple

, and minimal production style. We also believe that audience members should not have to pay a lot for an entertaining theatrical experience, and that performers should not have to pay anything. The simplicity of our production style not only places emphasis on the language and action of each production, but minimizes production expenses. Of course, we are also dependent on our generous advertisers and our fabulous patrons. All this makes it possible for us to remain committed to a $10 ticket price, continue a high frequency of production, and offer many differing performance opportunities throughout the year with no fee or other financial commitment from the performers. And all this makes the work we do accessible to everyone.

Off Book
by Andrew Daly

Alex, an aging but ambitious community theater director has gambled everything on a production of his new script. He's got the perfect cast and a Broadway producer has agreed to see it. Then his leading man drops out of the show, threatening to destroy Alex's dream. Desperate to keep the production afloat as tensions rise, he commits a shocking act of violence that flips the script and blurts the line between the stage and real life. As his cast unwittingly rehearses alongside the evidence of his crime, a dark, hilarious unraveling begins—forcing the troupe to decide just how far they are willing to go for the sake of a sold-out show.

Characters

Alex – an ambitious sixty-year-old community theater director/playwright
Dave – an arrogant amateur actor in his twenties
Carol – an amateur actor around 30 years old, seeking something to give meaning to her average, banal life
Kris – a joker who has fun doing shows with friends
Max – an caring and efficient amateur stage manager invested in this production

Ages and genders are flexible to an extent.
