JC, Amaté
Written/directed by Carla Parker
February 8 to 25, 2023
For the second event of the Ochre 2022-23 season, we present a curious and surreal comedy written and directed by Carla Parker, JC, Amaté. A lonely man bends time and space as he fashions beautiful origami animals. Step into his private world of mayhem and wonder. Can he control what he creates? “Hey, who’s in charge here?!”
A familiar all-star Ochre House cast features Cassie Bann, Elizabeth Evans, Monét Lerner, Justin Locklear, Omar Padilla, Sarah Rogerson, and Chris Sykes.
“(Writer/Director Carla) Parker likes to take on big questions, and her conceptually satisfying and funny first half and clever finale make JC, Amaté worth seeing.”
