Joking Apart Theater

Joking Apart Theater

Joking Apart Theater is a small theater company based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The name of the company is taken from the title of the play, "Joking Apart" by British playwright Alan Ayckbourn. While Joking Apart has performed several of Ayckbourne's plays, the company is not solely dedicated to producing his works; rather it is dedicated to capturing the comic spirit of Ayckborn. [Hicks, Dylan; [http://citypages.com/databank/25/1228/article12226.asp "Aycking To Be: Edwin Strout strives to give a comic hero his proper due"] ; City Pages; Vol. 25, Issue 1228; 16 June 2004] The company's first production, "That's MISTER Benchley to You, Mrs. Parker", was written by company founder Edwin Strout and was voted the best show of the 2003 Minnesota Fringe Festival.
