SUMMARY:The Nerd
DESCRIPTION:The Nerd\, by Larry Shue \nOur mid-year production was a comedy by American playwright Larry Shue. \nSet in the mid-Western\, mid-sized city of Terre Haute\, Indiana\, Willum’s architectural career is ticking along nicely. When he has a surprise phone call and hears that he will finally meet the man (Rick Steadman) who anonymously saved his life in Viet Nam\, he is thrilled. His positive outlook quickly turns sour when he discovers that Rick is a hopeless nerd\, devoid of any social and emotional intelligence. And when Rick moves in with him without being invited\, his life turns upside-down and all he can focus on is how to make him leave\, and soon! \nDirector Suzy Cain \n\nHere’s the cast:\n\n\nWillum Cubbert – Philip Rossiter\nTansy McGinnis – Anna Sutherland\nAxel Hammond – Martyn Barry\nRick Steadman – Laurence Ward\nWarnock Waldgrave – John Marwick\nClelia Waldgrave – Nicola Tod\nThor Waldgrave – Freddy Thompson\n\n\nListen to an interview with the director and one of the actors\n\nhttps://bctt.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/HW-Suzy-Cain-Philip-Rossiter-The-Nerd-20250507-1.mp3\n\n\nWatch the trailer:\n\n\n\n\n2025 The Nerd25 photos
