It’s just another day in ancient Rome and all Pseudolus wants to do is cheat at dice and win enough cash to buy his freedom. When his lovesick master declares his affection for the virgin next door, Pseudolus sees his big chance – get the girl for his master and win his own freedom! This slapstick musical send-up of classical comedy is filled with “old situations, new complications… and a happy ending of course!”

Jon will be playing the role of Matt (Pig-Pen) in Gurnet Theatre Project’s Boston Premiere of Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead by Bert V. Royal, running May 17 – 26 in the Plaza Black Box Theatre at the Boston Center for the Arts.
“A play set in an Irish-American bar that’s performed in an Irish-American bar — isn’t that getting a bit meta? Lowell’s fledgling Image Theater company seeks out unconventional venues in which to present new work, and for James McLindon’s “Distant Music” — a drama that reunites a disillusioned lawyer with the woman he wishes he’d married — director Jerry Bisantz came up with a perfect location, Lowell’s Old Court tavern. He also pulled off a casting coup in the person of Jonathan Popp, who’s so convincing as young Irish barkeep Dev Hart, I assumed he’d been plucked from the pub staff.”
April 2007
