My husband's play, "Why We Left Brooklyn," is opening at the Fourth Street Theater here in Manhattan on Thursday, August 29th, and will be up through Saturday, September 21st. Tickets are now available online, so please do grab some before they evaporate. The show is about 30-something artists grappling with their aspirations, successes, and failures. (Hrmmmmm.) It is also wickedly funny, sharp, bittersweet, and thoroughly entertaining. You definitely DO NOT want to miss this one.
Additionally, we're throwing a fundraiser party this Saturday 8/17 for his theater company, Theater Accident, and we would LOVE to see you there. It's sponsored by Sixpoint Brewery, there will be live music courtesy of Ellia Bisker (of Sweet Soubrette and Charming Disaster), and we have some truly tremendous raffle prizes, including this unbelievable original art piece by Susan Jamison:
Susan Jamison "White Sensory", kid leather glove, embroidery, horsehair, 5"x 25", 2013
