“Other People’s Money” – Award Winning, Probing Exploration of Corporate Greed Opens Jan 15th at Wells Fargo Center for the Arts
"Other People's Money," a 1989 play by Jerry Sterner, and Directed by Carl Hamilton sets the hostile takeover scenario in a small town. The story, which was an off-Broadway hit, is effectively told through just five characters.
“Much of the plot development concerns anti-takeover tactics however; "Other People's Money" is as much about the clashes and alliances of its characters as it is a tale of financial manipulations” says John DeGaetano, artistic director for North Bay Stage Company, a resident company. Other People’s Money was the winner of the 1989 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off Broadway Play.
“With its probing exploration of corporate greed, skillful characterizations and biting wit, this award-winning play has never been more relevant or insightful.” New York Magazine called Other People's Money "funny, serious, suspenseful, involving, disturbing, and, above all, expertly crafted."
Who’s who in the production features actors Robert Zelenka, Jon Vissman, Rebecca Allington, Jeremy Boucher, and Jennifer Pritchard. Directed by Carl Hamilton, stage-manager Rebecca West; set design by Darius Hamilton-Smith and costumes by Jamie Smith. Produced by Kristen Corderman and Ayrick Broin.
