RIDGEFIELD — Where can you see astronauts, hypochondriacs, and imaginary girlfriends all on one stage? Easy: this year’s Ridgefield Theater Barn’s (RTB) Evening of One Acts.

This annual event has become somewhat of a tradition for RTB, this being the sixth production in seven years. The concept is simple: seven different short comedic plays, directed by seven different directors featuring a cast of rotating actors.

First up is Precipice, written by Alex Dremann and directed by Mark Hankla. This was a lovely meet-cute involving two people on a building ledge. Those two were played pitch perfect by David Imm and Erin Sullivan. Their wonderful chemistry left the audience wanting to know more about what happened between these characters when the lights went down.

Next is Mr M’s Slaughterous Thoughts, the first of two semi-meta Theater-themed plays of the evening. Written by Ryan Armstrong and directed by Michael Ferrara, this focused on a director and two actors preparing for The Scottish Play. The frustrated director is played beautifully by Jojo Keane; the pompous annoyed actor is played by Bill Warncke, and the befuddled guard, Seyton, is played by Maria Grace Allen. The laughs were plenty, but for those who have ever been on a stage before, there were extra laughs of recognition.

The third play is I Just Sneezed with a Mouthful of Coffee and I Do Not Recommend It, written by Scott Mullen and directed by Pia Haas. This is the second meet-cute of the evening, this time in the waiting room of a doctor’s office. Daniel Baseletti and Jennifer Hankla play Ricky and Helen. These two neurotic hypochondriacs, always unsuccessful in love, may have just found what they were looking for in one another. Both had impeccable comedic timing and were a joy to watch on stage.

The next play is 10…9…8…, written by Guy R. Newsham and directed by Matt Pagliaro. In this play an unsuspecting reality show contestant (Allison Valentino) ends up on a very real space launch with a commanding officer (Tim Brandt) and his first officer (JoJo Keane). With this mix up, hilarity ensues. You’ll never think about space the same again.

Location, Location, Location is up next. Written by Rich Orloff and directed by Hunter Brady, this is a meet-cute of a different sort. Roger (Bill Warncke) and Michelle (Tami McCarthy) find themselves at a conference where an affair is inevitable, or is it? Both actors have such grounded and real takes on the characters that this was both hilarious and heartbreaking.

The penultimate play is Staging, by Kate Danley and directed by Craig David Rosen. A family misunderstands when a realtor (Cheryl Hughes) asks them to “stage” their house for sale. Songs and theater references abound in this very funny play. The family consisted of Stu (Kristin Aug), Joan (Jennifer Hankla), Marty (David Imm) and Pat (Addis Engel), all playing their part in preparing a show for a potential buyer (Erin Sullivan).

Finally, what seemed to be the audience favorite of the night was also the closing piece, The Home for Canadian Girlfriends, written by John Bavoso and directed by Nancy Ponturo. From the title, the audience didn’t know exactly what they were in for, but as the plot brilliantly unfolds, the audience is soon in on the joke. Daniel Basieletti plays Rupert, the intake manager at a retirement home of sorts and Katie Kozlowski is Tiffany, a recently ghosted girlfriend. The two of them are a joy to watch on stage bantering back and forth. One wishes this play was much longer than ten minutes.

Ridgefield Theater Barn can always be counted on for a fun evening at the theater. This production is no exception. “An Evening of One Acts” continues weekends to March 30th. Tickets and more information can be found at ridgefieldtheaterbarn.org.
