2 Tickets to "Logger Love Stories" on November 18th, a Longshadr Production
Love
Love in a bar
Love in this bar
We've seen 100's of ignitions over 134 years in the Logger Bar and some wild misfires.
There has been one fight in this bar since I've owned it. It was over a girl.
You might say..."that's not original," but I think it is. It is always immediate, intimate, personal, urgent, timeless.
If we are so good at love. If we have figured it all out...we wouldn't continue to sing about it, dance about it, write about it and make glorious theatre about it. I think so much is written about love, because everyone wants it, but no one truly understands it (or needs to)...it is an ongoing human mystery.
LOGGER LOVE STORIES is inspired by encounters that have happened in the bar. Some of them fall into deep human comedy. Some of them just fall deep. All of them have the possibility to resonate in our lives.
Written and directed by Michael Fields with an incredible cast including Shawn Wagner, Ben Clifton, Evan Grande, Alyssa Hughlett, Peggy Metzger, Lynne Wells, Bob Wells, David Powell, Alex Blouin, Isabel Semler, Jeff Landen (back as the ghost of Gino, along with Biscuit the wonder dog) and the amazing band of Marla Joy, Jeff Kelley, Tim Randles and Mike LaBole.
We promise you a rocking good time that will be full of "feels," laughs and live music.
About Longshadr:
HUMBOLDT COUNTY'S NEWEST THEATRE COMPANY
LONGSHADR is named after an old sign that used to hang on my driveway (not sure who made it or where it came from). I have the honor of living on Wiyot land above the Baduwa't (Mad River). LONGSHADR references the long shadows that are cast in the winter when the sun dips into the horizon behind the hill and the dark of the days become longer until the light of late spring. It is about hope, effort and joy of moving out of the shadows and into the light. It is about collaborations that promote the health and creative community spirit of this place. It is about preparing and creating popular (“of the people”), place-inspired, theatre for a new era, in a hopefully post pandemic time.
MICHAEL FIELDS is a founding member and former Producing Artistic Director of Dell'Arte International (for 45 years). He was also the Director of the California State Summer School for the Arts. He is the founder and director of Longshadr.
