Lunch Time Theater: Bardball and Other Plays

Jackalope Ranch July 24, 2012 6:00AM

Of all American popular sports, slow-paced, detail-oriented, and poetic baseball might be the most Shakespearean.

The pastime collides with the storied scribe in Friendly People Productions' Bardball and Other Plays, a trio of comedic shorts by Cindy Brown, Drew Derrix Templeton, and New Times contributor Julie Peterson at Herberger Theater Center.

On stage through Thursday, August 2, Brown's Bardball finds a man attempting to use ol' Will to to his advantage, Templeton's The Baseball Connection places itself on an all-women's team, and Peterson puts lovey-dovey performers and 'ball nuts in one room for A Midsummer Night's Cold Beverage.
