THEATRE OF THE SMALL-EYED BEAR PRESENTS
GET S.O.M.!
MAY 10-30 at THE WORKSHOP THEATER
Theatre of the Small-Eyed Bear, a new repertory theatre company formed by the union of Theatre of the Expendable, Small Pond Entertainment, and Cross-Eyed Bear Productions will present
GET S.O.M.! at The Workshop Theater in midtown Manhattan, May 10-30. In today’s declining economy it’s getting harder and harder for indie theatre companies to be able to afford to produce their work in New York City. These three companies have banded together to share production costs, performance space, design teams, and resources to present a month long repertory merger of three bold new plays,
Squiggy and the Goldfish by Lenny Schwartz,
Ore, or Or by Duncan Pflaster, and
Mare Cognitum by David McGee (S.O.M.).
The creative team for
GET S.O.M.! includes Wilburn Bonnell (Lighting Design), Jesse L. Hathaway (Props Design), Jennifer Raskopf (Costume Design), Elisha Schaefer (Set Design), Jared M. Silver (Sound Design), and Norah Turnham (Production Manager).
All performances will play at the Workshop Theater (312 West 36th Street, 4th Floor). Tickets ($12 for 1, $25 for all 3) are available at

A country on the brink of war. A city wracked by ineffectual protests. An extraordinarily odd job interview. Faced with such perils, three young idealists do the only thing they can: fly to the Moon in a homemade rocketship.
