Backstage Experts at Wilmington Theater Take Their Turn Behind the Footlights
The Mirror Players at Wilmington Playhouse stage Our Town with most crew onstage and many doubling as actors. Dennis Green serves as house manager while also rehearsing as Howie Newsome the milkman, balancing box office duties with frequent makeup and costume prep. As Pygmalion opens, Green rehearses in a minor opening scene role and shifts to box office duties for All My Sons later in the season. James Pruss moves from Constable Warren to lead Pygmalion, drawing on prior Europe theatre management experience at Frankfurt. The Playhouse installs a revolving set designed by Lance Crocker, challenging Pruss with its engineering needs.
