South Camden Theatre Company Announces 2014 -
2015 Season
1888 Press Release - South Camden Theatre Company
Announces 10th season Featuring works by Arthur
Miller, John Pielmeier, Joseph M. Paprzycki and
August Wilson. Philadelphia, PA-NJ - The South
Camden Theatre Company, a nonprofit professional
theatre organization located in Camden, New
Jersey announces its tenth season titled "Faith".
The season celebrates our rich past by producing
four plays concerning the idea of faith as seen
in works written by Arthur Miller, John
Pielmeier, Joseph M. Paprzycki and August Wilson.
Opening the tenth season October 10 - 26, 2014
is BROKEN GLASS written by Arthur Miller and
directed by Craig Hutchings. The Olivier
award-winning drama takes place in Brooklyn in
1938 and weaves a gripping mystery of guilt,
personal tragedy and love. Starting January 9 -
25, 2015 is AGNES OF GOD written by John
Pielmeier and directed by producing artistic
director Joseph M. Paprzycki. The play is the
story of a young nun who gave birth and claims
the pregnancy was an immaculate conception. As
baby is subsequently found dead a psychiatrist
and a Mother Superior seek the truth behind the
mystery of the father's identity.

FORTUNE COOKIES returns to stage February 27 -
March 15, 2015. Written by Joseph M. Paprzycki
and directed by Christopher "Jumbo" Schimpf. The
play was originally produced in the basement of
Sacred Heart Church in SCTC's third season.
FORTUNE COOKIES is a play of dreams and fate has
been the most requested play to be brought back
to the stage with a full production that only
SCTC can bring to the audience. Season 10 closes
with August Wilson's KING HEDLEY II running April
24 - May 10, 2015. Often thought of as the
bitterest and most tragic of Wilson's Pittsburgh
Cycle, the play focuses on the downfall of the
prideful ex-con protagonist, King Hedley II, the
son of one of the characters from his play SEVEN
GUITARS. SCTC's second Wilson production will
again be directed by SCTC favorite Connie
Norwood. Producing Artistic Director Joseph M.
Paprzycki states, "I wanted to bring together a
season of plays that celebrate and examine faith
in our world from all different viewpoints. Also,
since this is our tenth season I wanted to
produce our first Arthur Miller play, bring back
August Wilson, open the huge debate given to us
by AGNES OF GOD and bring back my own play
FORTUNE COOKIES in a rich full production in our
beautiful state-of-the-art home at Waterfront
South Theatre. It is a season arranged to thank
our loyal audience as well as open the door to
new people who may have not yet discovered South
Camden Theatre Company." All performances will
be held Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 p.m.
and Sunday afternoons at 200 p.m. at the 96-seat
Waterfront South Theatre located at 400 Jasper
Street in Camden, New Jersey. For more
