Playing Doctor Replaces Harrison VFD

ITAC - Harrison V.F.D., an original work by Tom Johnson, was slated to open this weekend. However, due to schedule crunches, Playing Doctor, a piece by Johnson and Mick Denniston, will be produced instead.

Playing Doctor is a comedy set at a medical convention. It centers around a young researcher and his quirky (uninvited) guests. It features Justin Braden, Meg Merckens, Marshall Nielsen, Katy Slaven, Jenna Vik and Alex Williams. The production is directed by Johnson.

Tom Johnson apologized for the short-notice change. "Obviously, we are sorry for any inconvenience that this change might cause our patrons," said Johnson. "However, we are confident that our production of Playing Doctor will provide the high quality entertainment that our patrons have come to expect at ITAC." Patrons who hold reservations for Harrison V.F.D. will automatically be moved to Playing Doctor and will be notified by the box office of the change of title.
