Light Up The Sky

and 2 p.m. Saturday, March 5

LIGHT UP THE SKY by Moss Hart

directed by Daniel L. Patterson

This will be Professor Patterson’s last production at Keene State College.

Light Up the Sky, widely hailed as a classic 1940s stage comedy, is an affectionate backstage look at the foibles and frailties of an obsessive group of show folk on the night when their new “artistic” production opens in Boston on its way, hopefully, to Broadway. The types are familiar - if from another era: the boorish producer, the emotionally extravagant, larger-than-life star, the hopeful young playwright (and the cynical old one) and the high-strung director who, as one character put it, “cries at card tricks.”
