Theater is both a spiritual healing and emotional healing and even physical healing for me, and it’s been my raison d’etre for most of my life, and that’s been problematic, at times, because…as a professional actor there are going to be times when you’re not engaged or employed in my chosen profession, but I still go back to the theater to look for sustenance, inspiration, community –all those imperatives that I cannot find anywhere else to date.
I aspire to tell stories that touch our common humanity: the fears, hopes, conflicts, and most of all the love that we share. They say that life is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel. I seek to do both. Here’s to life! ~Steven Hauck
Steven Hauck actor/playwright recently made his directorial debut with TOMORROW WE LOVE (co-author Jeffrey Vause) at the Chain Theater in New York. He directed that production, as well as plays and musicals at Newstage Theatre, Dixon Place, Theater for the New City, Geva Theater and the Red Barn Playhouse.
TOMORROW WE LOVE is a gender-bending, comedic homage to the classic romantic films of the mid-twentieth century. It’s 1960 in the wealthy enclave of Noble Bay, California, where Elaine ‘Lainie’ Fairbanks is the toast of the town. She has it all – money, status and an intimate relationship with the Pacific Ocean. Suddenly Lainie must contend with her husband’s betrayal, her daughter’s rebellion, her best friend’s treachery and the wrath of a small town engulfed in scandal. Can she turn tragedy into triumph? Will she crumble or will she soar? Tomorrow We Love is her story – and ours! TOMORROW WE LOVE is her story – and ours!
