Steve Penman’s Courtship

Two elderly gentlemen, one a widower and the other married, meet regularly at “their” bench.

Edward and David share observations about the world's problems and offer sometimes humorous "solutions". At the same time, they provide real insight into loneliness, aging and relationships.

This is a touching and humorous show that is well worth seeing.

Meet the Cast & Crew of our last show - Love Loss & What I Wore

Welcome Message from the Director

We are so pleased to welcome you to our first production of the 2022-
23 season, “Love, Loss and What I Wore”! Those of you familiar with
previous Naked Stage productions may recall that we performed this
show 5 years ago, then directed by one of our co-founders, Ed Milaney.
I had the privilege of being in that production, my first show with Naked
Stage. We are bringing it back for a very special reason: to honor our
founder and past president, Jim Trimble, who passed away last spring.
Before Jim passed, we asked him to choose the opening show for this
season, and this was his choice. It is with love and gratitude to Jim, and
his wife Pat, that we share with you the amazing talents of five new
performers in this thoughtful, funny, and poignant production. Thank
you for your support of Naked Stage!

"I've missed only one or two of the performances so far, and I really enjoyed all of them. The chain-rattler in the play about Scrooge was excellent and the Southern Belles in the Sipping Society - I just loved them all!"
