Cast Announcement: Dead Ringer

Dead Ringer Cast (from l to r): John Davy, Rikki Reid, Robert Kratz

Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts (TAPA) and Cyndi Lewis, Rob Trost Real Estate are delighted to announce the cast of Dead Ringer, written by Gino DiIorio and directed by Robert Buckingham.

Opening March 20^th, Dead Ringer is a dark comedy set in an abstract Wild West. This wickedly twisted curiosity of a play was a winner in the 2005 BBC International Playwriting Contest, and has been called a “winning combination of film noir westerns” by The New York Times. The play

centers around Tyrus Cole, a horse trainer, who lives on a ranch with his invalid sister, Mary. Because he can’t watch her during the day, Tyrus confines Mary to a root cellar. When Dwight Foley arrives at the ranch seeking help with his horse, he and Mary fall in love and begin plotting the demise of Tyrus and their eventual escape. Their plan escalates and in the end, the three find themselves trapped in a complex web of greed and secrets. This production is intended for mature audiences only.

Starring in this production are Robert Kratz (Tyrus), Rikki Reid (Mary), and John Davy (Dwight).
