Chagrin at fringenyc

We kick off our FAB Minutes series for fringeNYC with the playwright Michael Ross Albert.

We met at the FAB Cafe to discuss the world premiere production of CHAGRIN. The play is directed by Adam Levi, featuring Marco Agnolucci, Heath Carr, Suzy Kimball, and Melissa Rosenberger. Associate Producer/Assistant Director: Kaitlyn Samuel. Together they form Outside Inside.

Chagrin takes place outside of a small town hospital, where four estranged friends are unexpectedly reunited. Fifteen years ago, these child geniuses rose to mega-stardom on a popular TV game show. Now, brought together by a tragic accident, they must grapple with their collective past in the place where it all began -- Chagrin Falls.

Chagrin goes up at The First Floor Theater at the historic LaMaMa (74A East 4th Street between 2nd Avenue and Bowery). For performance schedule and to purchase tickets, visit www.nycfringe.org or call 866.468.7619.

Founded in 2011 by graduates of the Actors Studio Drama School, Outside Inside's mission is to produce new plays written, directed, and performed according to the tenets of the influential Stanislavsky "System," and the philosophies of the world-renowned Actors Studio.

In the company's first production, recent graduates of the Actors Studio Drama School's MFA program come together to perform this humorous and heartbreaking story of failed friendship. The acting company is comprised of artists from Australia, Canada and the United States.

For this production Inside Outside paried with HUBO. HUBO is an independent production company, which aims to expose the complexity of the individual. HUBO hopes to ignite and reinvigorate humanity's self-perspective through the arts, thus the use of the slogan "Raw Artistry Exposed". HUBO encourages artistry through practical means, and dedicates its art to stimulate the mind, however unconventional and unfamiliar.
