Provincetown Theater Zooms to Victory

Partnering with the Capital Classics Theatre Company of West Hartford, Connecticut, the Provincetown Theater is presenting a free Zoom event on Saturday, March 13th at 7 p.m. with performers of Athol Fugard’s one-act play Victory, set in South Africa in 1994, after the apartheid system has been defeated and Nelson Mandela elected president. The story involves two teenagers who were found robbing a home, leading to talk about poverty and despair.

The three-person Capital Classics cast — Eric Nesmith, Geoffrey Sheehan, and Tonille Simone Watkis — will perform scene readings, directed by Jan Mason. Between readings, the artists will discuss the play’s themes and relevance with the audience.

The event is part of the Capital Classics series “Contemporary Classics Conversations.” To get a Zoom link and participate, go to provincetowntheater.org at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
