Gone Missing

The centerpiece of the 2018 season of Encores! Off-Center is a concert staging of the Civilians' brilliant 2003 docutheater vaudeville, an interview-based collection of monologues and songs about loss. The score is by the hugely gifted Civilians composer and Off-Center artistic director Michael Friedman, whose shocking death last year (at the age of 41) shook the local theater world to the core. The cast includes John Behlmann, Susan Blackwell, Aysan Celik, Deborah S. Craig, Taylor Mac and David Ryan Smith.
