Kate Fuglei | Intimate Excellent
Last night was the gala Opening Night for our West Coast Premiere of On the Spectrum by Ken LaZebnik, directed by Jacqueline Schultz. The sold out packed house was filled with press, friends, subscribers, and enthusiastic audience members. Response to the play and production was very strong and positive, with lots of excited buzz and chatter after the performance.
Among those enjoying the Opening Night performance and after-party were Barbara Firestone, President and CEO of The Help Group, Rita Berens, playwright Ken LaZebnik and his wife Kate Fuglei, director Jacqueline Schultz, Los Angeles set designer Tom Buderwitz, as well as members of the On the Spectrum design and production team.
On the Spectrum is a funny, touching and powerful love story between two young people with autism, starring Jeanie Hackett, Virginia Newcomb and Dan Shaked. The production is sponsored, in part, by The Help Group.
The performance was followed by a catered reception in the Fountain’s upstairs cafe. Enjoy some photos!
