Details
Originally staged four seasons ago in the 98-seat Shimberg Playhouse to great acclaim and a sold out run, Jobsite now takes over the 300-seat Jaeb Theater in what is sure to be a can’t-miss part of Spooky Season, on stage Oct. 14 – Nov. 8. Jobsite’s Hallowe’en tradition spans all the way back to 1999! Summer Bohnenkamp’s turn as the legendary Annie Wilkes won her top acting honors from both Creative Loafing and Theatre Tampa Bay Award in a run that sold out for five straight weeks. Jobsite Producing Artistic Director David Jenkins also returns as novelist Paul Sheldon, with Best of the Bay Award winner Troy Padraic Brooks taking over the role of Sheriff Buster. Artistic Associate Paul J. Potenza directs. True life becomes stranger than fiction when acclaimed romance novelist Paul Sheldon is rescued from a wintery car crash by his “number one fan,” seemingly-kind nurse Annie Wilkes, and wakes up captive in her secluded home. While Paul is convalescing, Annie reads his latest book and becomes enraged when she discovers the author has killed off her favorite character. Annie forces Paul to write a new novel, but he realizes Annie has no intention of letting him go anywhere. The irate Annie has Paul writing as if his life depends on it – and it does. This new production not only benefits from a much larger stage allowing for a more impressive cabin in the winter woods, but the Jaeb’s state-of-the-art lighting and sound package will surely increase the thrills and chills. No spoilers, but this production steps up the ”wow factor” via new and improved special effects simply not possible in the Shimberg. We’re not a “number one fan” of offering disclaimers, but be advised this thriller features a psychopathic bibliophile whose weapons of choice include prescription drugs, soapy water, a ream of erasable typing paper, and a sledgehammer, and a captive victim who – quite understandably – uses very strong adult language.
