Casting has been announced for Thomas Bernhard’s Ritter, Dene, Voss, to run September 23 – October 10 at La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club First Floor Theatre. Adam Seelig has directed the production, originally seen at Toronto’s One Little Goat Theatre Company.

In Ritter, Dene, Voss (named for the three actors who premiered the original 1986 production in German), Bernhard explores sexual repression and sibling rivalry, as two sisters attempt to reintegrate their volatile brother into their home. The company will feature Maev Beaty, Shannon Perreault, and Jordan Pettle.

The creative team will include production designer Jackie Chau and lighting designer Kate McKay.
