CATF Actor/Playwright David Toney
CATF actor-David Emerson Toney’s new play THE SOUL COLLECTORis receiving its world premiere at Everyman Theatre in Baltimore. David Toney appeared in STICK FLY by Lydia Diamond last summer at the Festival. He will be joining us again this summer playing the role of Turner in the World Premiere of THE HISTORY OF LIGHTby Eisa Davis. If you are in Baltimore go see David’s new play.
“THE SOUL COLLECTOR at Everyman Theatre is a fable with a sense of humor.” Baltimore Sun
“Imagine the vintage sitcom SANFORD AND SON somehow fusing with Noel Coward’s BLITH SPIRIT and you get some idea of what to expect in THE SOUL COLLECTOR, the bright and inventive play by David Emerson Toney receiving a robust world premiere production from Everyman Theatre.” Baltimore Sun.
David let me read an early draft of THE SOUL COLLECTORlast fall. He has written a fable…it is a entertaining story/tale with several surprises and twists. I am very happy that his play is receiving such positive reactions. I am a big fan of David Toney. He and I were in graduate school in the late 1970’s at Ohio University in Athens Ohio. He was a Kick-Ass actor then and even more so now. How cool that he is also writing plays! I am looking forward to working with David again this summer.
If you get a chance to see THE SOUL COLLECTORin Baltimore…please let me know what you think of this talented actor/playwright work. For more info: go to everymantheatre.org Or call 410 752 2208
