Sunday,
June 19, 12 noon at Boston
Court in Pasadena. Admission is free, but reservations
are recommended -- to reserve seats, send an email letting me know
how many seats you'd like to ChainedToTheMoon@gmail.com.
Boston Court
is located at 70 North Mentor Avenue in Pasadena. Here's a link
for directions.
Chained
to the Moon is a new play by Greg Kalleres. It's a story
about the tumultuous relationship between two young lovers who are
tragically addicted to one another. But after two years of secrets
and lies they discover that addiction is much stronger than love.
The writing is fantastic -- great characters who grow and change
and affect each other, with dialogue that nails the specific inarticulateness
of rage within an argument better than anything I've ever seen.
This reading
reunites the leads from my recent production of The
Misanthrope. Barbara Suiter and Michael Truly are a great pair
of actors with exactly the right kind of chemistry and chops for
a show like this. Driving down from San Francisco for the show is
DJ Zachary
Walter. He'll be at the turntables before the reading and hooking
up a soundtrack.
The idea here
is of course to generate interest in a full production of this script.
I'd love to direct it -- please let me know if you're a potential
producer interested in reading the script or mounting a full production.
Thanks!
I hope you can
check it out on June 19.
