WEB PAGE: http://www.sfmt.org SAN FRANCISCO (6/19/14) Skyrocketing rents. Loss of diversity. Evictions, Google Glass wearing nouveau riche, The War on the Poor. What is The City coming to? The Tony Award-winning San Francisco Mime Troupe (SFMT) opens its 55th season with RIPPLE EFFECT, a musical comedic tale of intersecting lives and cultures that reflect the familiar neighborhood tensions that are polarizing San Franciscans today. RIPPLE EFFECT plays July 4 thru Sept. 1, 2014 throughout the Bay Area in San Francisco, the North Bay, East Bay, and Peninsula. All park shows are free and open to the public. Additional, ticketed indoor shows will be in, Point Arena and Redway. For a complete schedule and more information, the public may call 415-285-1717 or visit http://www.sfmt.org. Additional info on SFMT and community organizations is made available at information tables at each of our park shows. Done in their characteristic quick-change, singing & dancing, Commedia dell'Arte political style, a cast of four, playing multiple characters, tell the story of three very different women, all at a critical life point, who find themselves in a boat on San Francisco Bay, brought together by chance. Although they perceive each other as “different”, each is a member of the working class and has been betrayed by a system that rewards only the few motivated solely by greed and self-interest. As they tell their stories, they discover through their failed hopes and aspirations they are more similar than they thought and are connected in ways never imagined. In solidarity, they refuse to let their home town fall into the hands of those who have no heart for it. Their actions will have a positive Ripple Effect. RIPPLE EFFECT – written by as esteemed trio of beloved Bay Area writers and performers including Michael Gene Sullivan (SFMT), Eugenie Chan (Cutting Ball) and Tanya Shaffer (Let My Enemy Live Long!). Music & lyrics by Ira Marlowe. Michael Bello is the music director and lead musician. Other musicians include: Peter Penhallow and Mick Berry. The show is co-directed by Hugo E Carbajal and Wilma Bonet. RIPPLE EFFECT features longtime Mime Troupe collective members: Velina Brown, Lisa Hori-Garcia, Keiko Shimosato Carreiro, and Michael Gene Sullivan. 2014 PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE BY AREA: http://www.sfmt.org/schedule/images/schedulebyarea2014.pdf SAN FRANCISCO: Fri., July 4 Dolores Park, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show - Opening Weekend Sat., July 5 Dolores Park, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show - Opening Weekend Sun., July 6 Yerba Buena Gardens, 2:00 pm (Music 1:30) Sat., Aug. 16 Glen Park, 2:00 pm (Music 1:30) Sun, Aug. 17 Washington Square Park, 2:00 pm (Music 1:30) Wed., Aug. 28 Troupe Studio Space, 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show Free but RSVP at http://www.brownpapertickets.com Sat., Aug. 30 Peacock Meadow in Golden Gate Park, - 2:00 pm (Music 1:30) Sun., Aug. 31 Dolores Park, 2:00 pm (Music 1:30) - Closing Weekend Mon., Sept. 1 Dolores Park, 2:00 pm (Music 1:30) - Closing Weekend EAST BAY: Sat., July 12 Cedar Rose Park, Berkeley, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show Sun., July 13 Cedar Rose Park, Berkeley, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show Sat., July 26 Live Oak Park, Berkeley, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show Sun., July 27 Live Oak Park, Berkeley. 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show Wed., July 30 Montclair Ball Field, Montclair, 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show Wed., Aug. 6 Lakeside Park, Oakland, 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show Thurs., Aug. 7 Lakeside Park, Oakland, 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show Sat., Aug. 23 Willard Park, Berkeley, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show Sun., Aug. 24 Willard Park, Berkeley, 1:30 pm music, 2:00 pm show NORTH BAY: Wed., July 23 Mill Valley Community Center (back lawn), Mill Valley 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show POINT ARENA: Wed., July 16 Arena Theater 7:30 pm music, 8:00 pm show, Ticket info: http://www.arenatheater.org 707-882-3272 UKIAH: Thurs., July 17 Todd Grove Park 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show REDWAY: Sat., July 19 Mateel Community Center 7:30pm music, 8:00 pm show, ticket info: http://www.mateel.org 707-923-3368 PALO ALTO: Thurs., July 10 Mitchell Park (South Field) 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show Thurs., Aug. 21 Mitchell Park (South Field) 6:30 pm music, 7:00 pm show SACRAMENTO: Sat., Aug. 2 Southside Park 3:30 pm music, 4:00 pm show Sun., Aug. 3 Southside Park 3:30 pm music, 4:00 pm show SANTA CRUZ: Sat., Aug. 9 San Lorenzo Park 2:30 pm music, 3:00 pm show Sun., Aug. 10 San Lorenzo Park 2:30 pm music, 3:00 pm show
