The two will discuss the inspirations for the stylish costumes in Panic, set in 1963 Paris and featuring a character modeled after famed filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock.

On October 9, Peninsula Players actors Carmen Roman and Gary Houston will present “Film Acting vs. Stage Acting,” a discussion of the differences between acting on stage and acting for the camera. Both Roman and Houston have extensive film and television credits in addition to their lengthy stage résumés.
