BEER
BEER PLAYWRIGHT
NICK LEAVENS WITH
ACTRESS LAURA
RAMADEI
A true tale of how votes were bought with beer in rural
Pennsylvania in the 1970s, director Wilson Milam heads this
production of Nick Leavens’ play Beer. “This play represents
class perspectives and views on the world that Willow and I
found refreshing and insightful,” Pearlstein says. “Nick Leav-
ens is writing about where he is from, and so the characteriza-
tions have a complexity that makes this so rich.”
Beer receives a workshop reading 7:30 pm Friday, Sept.
2, at LCC.
LUNA PARK
O
regon Performance Lab is back for its second
summer of theater workshops, bringing rising
playwrights of America to Eugene. Described as
a “three-week pop-up laboratory,” OPL connects
artists with venues, actors and an audience for the-
atrical experimentation.
The wife-and-husband team of Willow Norton (artistic
director) and Corey Pearlstein (creative director) are based
in New York but have roots in Eugene. On the heels of last
year’s successful inaugural season, now they are fueling
even more ambitious plans.
OPL produces theater that reflects and appeals to a di-
verse populations. According to creative director Pearl-
stein, “We’re trying to widen the cultural bandwidth,” says
Pearlstein, the lab’s creative director. “Overall, our goal is
to broaden the cannon and shine light on a wider range of
experiences as best we can.”
This translates into moving theater sets out of the living
rooms of upper-middle-class neurotic New Yorkers and
setting them anywhere and everywhere else.
Here’s the 2016 line up:
RAIN AND ZOE SAVE THE WORLD
Acclaimed playwright Crystal Skillman’s coming-of-
age story follows two Seattle teenagers on a cross-country
motorcycle trip to a major social protest. “We wanted to
find a work that featured smart, compelling young charac-
ters addressing challenging contemporary issues,” Pearl-
stein says of Skillman, who possesses “the ideal voice for
our vision.”
Willow Norton directs Rain and Zoe Save The World
with a cast featuring Storm Kennedy, Darius Bunce and
Miller Savetz. This show will receive a full production at
Lane Community College (LCC) this winter, so be sure

Auditions
Faerie Jazz Ensemble. All improvised from
themes. (541) 207-7651
Years before Walt Disney — or anyone else — ever
dreamed of opening an amusement park, Skip Dundy and
Fred Thompson created Luna Park in Coney Island, a light-
ed wonderland where city dwellers, burnt-out on modern
industrialism, could remember how to play.
Hyeyoung Kim, Michael Cooper and Daniel Levin team
up to stage this new musical, and local artists will partner with
the creative team to present a concert version of the show.
“It is a story about ambition, vision and optimism,”
Pearlstein notes, adding that the play “feels very American
in a time we are all trying understand what that means.”
Luna Park will be staged 7:30 pm Sunday, Sept. 11, at LCC.
