Georgia Repertory Theatre returns Athens's own professional theatre company continues its tradition of presenting Athens with professional world premieres. The Georgia Repertory Theatre is producing Salvage, a new drama by William Goulet, to open Feb. 16 at the Seney-Stovall Chapel. In Salvage two ominous fix-it men try to repair a couple's front porch. In the process the couple realizes that more than their front porch needs to be saved. Playwright William Goulet has created a world that blurs the line between realism and fantasy.
Salvage is a thought-provoking exploration of disintegrating relationships.
Salvage is written by former UGA student William Goulet and directed by faculty member Stanley Longman. The production will star Atlanta actors John Forman and Bruce Evers as well as Michelle Morain, who has performed at the Oregon Shakespeare festival and the American Conservatory Theatre. The Georgia Rep, Athens's only professional theater company, is a University and Resident Theatre Association theater housed in UGA's drama department. The mission of the Georgia Rep is to offer the Athens community and UGA students an opportunity to see professionally produced world premieres of American plays written by established playwrights. Salvage will take the stage at the Seney-Stovall Chapel on Milledge Avenue, in the Lucy Cobb Institute.
