Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C®) presents the Fall Studio Theatre Production featuring “Our House,” written by renowned playwright, screenwriter and television writer Theresa Rebeck.
The play, directed by Frederick Perry, associate theatre arts professor at Tri-C, is about a rising television news anchor that is tripped up by her own ambition when she covers a hostage crisis. Morphing swiftly from comic to catastrophic, Rebeck’s biting wit and gift for social satire raises “Our House” to the lofty theatrical territory shared by her earlier plays “Mauritius,” “The Scene,” “The Water’s Edge,” “Bad Dates” and “Spike Heels.”
Rebeck is a widely produced playwright throughout the United States and abroad. She has written for American Theatre magazine and has had excerpts of her plays published in the Harvard Review. In television, Rebeck has written for “Dream On,” “Brooklyn Bridge,” “L.A. Law” and “Third Watch” and has been a writer/producer for “Law and Order: Criminal Intent” and “NYPD Blue.”
Rebeck has won numerous awards for her writing including the Mystery Writer’s of America’s Edgar Award, the Writer’s Guild of America award for Episodic Drama, the Hispanic Images Imagen Award and the Peabody award. She has also won the National Theatre Conference Award and was awarded the William Inge New Voices Playwriting Award in 2003.
