As Welfarewell is about to go up in Monroe Illinois, the director, John Campbell sent me an e-mail depicting the first bank heist scene being filmed. Like the production staged by Michael Darmanin at the English Drama Group in Salzburg, Austria, in 2011, Campbell’s troupe opted to film the bank robberies in local banks (with […]
Welfarewell is being staged by the Monroe Actors Theatre Company, Monroe, Illinois (southwest part of the state, close to St. Louis, Missouri), in February 2013. So, it won’t be much of a stretch to have Esmerelda unable to dig in the frozen ground to bury poor old Merlin…

Fans of Esmerelda in the Detroit area can just hop across the bridge or through the tunnel and spend an evening with Essie and her jailbirds, rich […]
Esmerelda and the girls will be on stage at the Odyssey Dinner Theatre in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan this upcoming spring.
Directed by Layla Shuparski, the show will run in April and May 2012.
Director of the May 2011 production of Welfarewell in Austria, Michale Darmanin, and his University of Salzburg colleague, Andreas Schachermayr, are set to translate Welfarewell into German. Darmanin’s troupe, The English Drama Group, are staging Welfarewell in its original English form in Salzburg and Vienna. Mr. Darmanin has received numerous inquiries from German-language theatre groups […]

Plans are underway to secure top talent to direct and act in the film. Right now this is under development and we’ll keep you posted on progress, including who will […]
the cast and crew at West Mifflin High School in Pennsylvania for their outstanding efforts in staging Welfarewell. They had an 18-year-old actress, Becky, playing 80-year-old Esmerelda!
Cat is very proud of the cast, only 5 of whom had ever been on stage before. A round of Catnip for everyone!
