Barrie: Talk Is Free Theatre presents “Perfect on Paper” by Marcia Johnson January 30-February 8
Monday, January 20, 2025
Olivia is an independent black woman. She proudly identifies as a feminist. Her deep dark secret is that she writes bodice-ripping romance novels under a pseudonym. When her life is saved by a handsome young white man who dotes on her, he seems too good to be true. Is he just perfect on paper?
Perfect On Paper stars Helen Belay (White Taffeta Silk, Or Don’t Do It Bestie!), Griffin Hewitt (Sweeney Todd, Into The Woods), Sydney Cochrane (Into The Woods–New Zealand), Arlene Duncan (The Music Man), and TIFT newcomer Savion Roach. The play is directed by Vanessa Sears and choreographed by David Ball. Grace Batten will manage the stage with apprentice Kelsey Jensen. Costumes are designed by Claudia Matas with assistance from Nala Landor, sound is designed by Maddie Bautista, and intimacy direction is by Christina Fox. Robin Clipsham serves as production coordinator with assistance from Lauren Cully, who also coordinates set and props.
