Production History
The Bald Soprano, while not technically our production, could be considered the proto-Extemopre show; bringing together several of our regulars for the first time. It was presented as part of “An Evening of Absurdity” by the Santa Clarita Shakespeare Festival, paired with Ionesco’s The Lesson, directed by Stephan Nieman.
