Frazier said the Stage 2 Series allows artists to work together on
smaller works of theater, ones they're particularly interested in.
"It can be, but doesn't even have to be, a full-fledged play," he
said. "It can be a reading, a new work, a locally written piece. It
might be a poetry slam or concert, things we wouldn't do in our
regular subscription season, but interesting things that need to be
done to allow people to express themselves and offer audiences
a greater range of performances. I act as producer and make sure
quality is there, but I don't direct. Direction, stage production and
performances are done by those submitting the work. We've started
Stage 2, but who knows how it will evolve. If our inaugural June
production of the three cast-member play 'Sylvia' directed by Erin
Ferrell is the sort of thing Macon has to look forward to, then I'd say
we made the right decision creating Stage 2. Production quality was
high and performers were perfect."
"e Dining Room," "e Last Five Years" and "Love, Loss, and
What I Wore" are the other works set for Stage 2's June 2019 to May
2020 season.
