Dennis Hawkins-Bogle will perform in Rivercity Players' spring 2022 production of Norm Foster's Jonas and Barry in the Home starting May 5th, with shows at Rivercity Stage through May 15th.

Meet Dennis...

Most recent production:

\Most recently, I played Peter in Kayak.

What are you enjoying about this play?

I enjoy so much about this play! But I am enjoying the challenge of learning to portray a 67-year-old curmudgeon. Although a comedy, this play explores family dynamics, break-ups, friendship, aging, illness, and death. I also enjoy working with a creative team of actors, a director, and other technical theatre artists.

How do you see your character?

My character is a cranky old man. He grapples with challenges and life situations that many of us encounter, regardless of our age. My character "falls" into an "abyss," and through awareness and encouragement, changes his life to become more engaged and active.

Meet Kelly...

Most recent production:

My most recent production was Rivercity' first play back after the pandemic; Love Letters.

What are you enjoying about this play?

I enjoy so much about this play! But mostly, how relatable it is to real life, and the range of emotions it portrays. From hilarity to sobbing, this play has it all.

How do you see your character?

I see my character as a real person. Someone struggling to care for herself as she cares for her Dad. I'm really enjoying playing Rosie.

What are you enjoying about this play?

Developing camaraderie with fellow respected actors. This is a very clever and well written show that is a delight to work on.

Jonas is a pleaser. He spends his time trying to help Barry and Rosie. This act helps him discover the importance of family and friends.
