The Two Noble Kinsmen

Thanks to all who came out this summer to see TNK! We had a successful run bringing free Shakespeare to the masses in beautiful Seattle. 

"When a theater troop is focused on working with Shakespeare’s entire canon, it inevitably must dust off such oddities as the little known The Two Noble Kinsmen. Scholars credit the writing of this piece to the team of John Fletcher and Shakespeare and file the work under tragicomedy. The play, based on Chaucer’s The Knight’s Tale, involves two Theban cousins (J. Samuel Cowan, Adam St. John) falling in love with the same Athenian woman (Jennifer Ewing). It is a positive commentary on Seattle and the GreenStage Shakespeare in the Park program that the presentation drew such a good crowd on a sun baked afternoon in Volunteer Park. All were rewarded with a solid, entertaining production..." Alan Sydney, Drama in the Hood

The Underpants 

a play by Carl Sternheim, adapted by Steve Martin

February 13-March 1, 2015 at the Mount Baker Theatre in Bellingham, WA

Directed by Teresa Thuman, Artistic Director of 2014 TPS Gregory Award winner Theatre Company of the Year.

Renowned performer and writer Steve Martin provides a reinvigorated satire adapted from the 1910 German play about Louise and Theo Maske, a couple whose conservative existence is shattered when Louise’s bloomers fall down in public. Though she pulls them up quickly, Theo thinks the incident will cost him his job as a government clerk. Louise’s momentary display does not result in the feared scandal, but it does attract two infatuated men, each of whom wants to rent the spare room in the Maske’s home. Oblivious to their amorous objectives, Theo splits the room between them, happy to collect rent from both a foppish poet and a whiny hypochondriac. Filled with off-the-wall humor, wordplay, and masterful banter, The Underpants is relevant in the most entertaining of ways.

Kitsap Sun 2012 Best of Theatre Awards

Feb 8, 2013

Jennifer was thrilled to be awarded special mention for her performance of Viola in Twelfth Night in the Best Actress (Non-Musical) category of the Kitsap Sun’s Reviewer’s Choice Awards for the 2012 season! Twelfth Night also received a nod in the Best Show (Non-Musical) category. 

Many thanks and congratulations to Key City Public Theatre, and the wonderful cast and creative team behind Twelfth Night!

"Ewing...[is] equally at home with not only punch lines, but with the characters' elements of pathos, as well, and [is] just as good when reacting to the lines of others as [she is] when delivering [her] own. The way [Viola and Olivia] let their uneasy acquaintance foment is particularly well-played. 

"It's a laugh a minute, minimum, for two hours; a treat for the eyes, the ears, the intellect and the funny bone, all in a picnic scenario."  – Michael C. Moore, Kitsap Sun
