The Semi-Circle Basel Theater Group - October 2022

The Semi-Circle is Basel's English language amateur theater group which has been staging plays and musicals for 45 years. Their upcoming autumn production is "Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike" by Christopher Durang. This broad American comedy is about adult siblings Vanya and Sonia who share a home in Pennsylvania, where they reflect on their life choices.

When their movie-star sister, Masha, arrives with younger boyfriend, Spike, old resentments flare up, eventually leading to threats to sell the house. Also on the scene are sassy maid Cassandra, who can predict the future, and a lovely young aspiring actress named Nina.

The performances will be at Fachwerk Allschwil, Baslerstrasse 48, 4123 Allschwil on 4, 5, 6 & 11, 12 November 2022 all at 19:30. Get your tickets here. Assistant director Canan Adams and cast member Magda Bednarska joined us in the studio to talk about the production.
