NOW ACCEPTING TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATIONS

The new drama Roebling: The Story of the Brooklyn Bridge is in development for a New York City professional production. Produced through special arrangement between the author Mark Violi and Theater To Go.

Theater To Go is well known throughout the Mid Atlantic region for their unique interactive theater events and is helmed by Ruth Markoe who has produced, directed and performed throughout the region for many years.

Roebling author Mark Violi is an accomplished writer, actor and producer. He has optioned two feature film screenplays to production companies in New York and Hollywood. His plays Roebling and Riding the Comet have both had non-Equity productions at Actors’ NET of Bucks County.

Based on the true story of the Roebling family who labored against all odds to conceive, design and finally build the New York’s World-Famous Brooklyn Bridge, this play has been endorsed by the Roebling Museum and played to great acclaim in two past non-Equity productions.

Theater To Go has partnered with Fractured Atlas to accept tax-deductible donations immediately. This with the expectation of an Equity Showcase production in 2013 to be directed by Ruth Markoe. This showcase production is seen as a first step toward a larger New York production.

Anyone interested in producing opportunities or making a tax-deductible contribution is encouraged to contact us.

Poster from the Non-equity Premiere, September 2009.

Roebling: The Story of the Brooklyn Bridge brings to the stage the human drama surrounding the herculean construction effort to complete one of the most endearing and enduring engineering icons in the world.

John Roebling sets out to build the most ambitious engineering project of the Industrial Revolution—The Brooklyn Bridge. But the project is beset with set-backs and tragedies that leave the Roebling family and the bridge project in crisis. Based on the true story.

Running for a three week world premiere at Actors' NET of Bucks County (PA) in the Fall of 2009 and playing to multiple sold-out crowds, Roebling became one of the most popular and successful plays of that theater's proud 14-year history.

Entertaining, historic and inspirational, Roebling is a great choice for public performance as well as in an educational setting. For more information, a full synopsis of the play and to see how you may acquire the rights to produce Roebling in your venue, see: About The Play
