L.A. Actors Tackle One-Man Shows at REDCAT, Geffen, and Other Theaters

backstage.com: Los Angeles theaters are opening their stages to one-person shows as a growing list of actors use the format to further their careers. In April, Val Kilmer staged a production of his solo play "Citizen Twain," which revived interest in a movie he's developing based on Mark Twain's life. The Geffen Playhouse is staging a one-person production titled "The Pianist of Willesden Lane," starring Mona Golabek and based on her book about her family, and over the next six weeks REDCAT is mounting solo productions from actors Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine and Sandra Bernhard.
