Scarlet Cup is Up, Up and Away
Scarlet Cup Theater Opens New Season
Join the frazzled passengers and crew at ten airports around the world in Departures, a very British comedy by John Godber. Directed by Anthony Haigh at the Danville-Boyle County Airport, you’ll sit in the lobby among the actors as they try to survive the modern perils of air travel.
History of Scarlet Cup Theatre
Founded in late 2014 by folks who were interested in seeing fresh and unusual
plays in varying venues, Scarlet Cup Theater was eventually named after a brilliant
mushroom that pops up in Kentucky and around the world, displaying a scarlet cup
amid the gray and dying winter forest.
It took a year to get our theatrical ducks in a row, find a fiscal sponsor, gather some
money, recruit others passionate about theater, and settle on a play and a venue.
Our first production was in March of 2016. (See Past Productions for our seasons.)
Aiming to do two shows a year, we offer international and contemporary and new
drama and comedy. We have had three American premieres out of our five
scheduled productions. We look for unusual locations and have performed in
restaurants, churches and airports.
Our mission statement says it all : Scarlet Cup offers occasional and unexpected
theater in surprising venues to challenge audiences with thought-provoking
performances.
