I’ll be performing tonight The National Arts Club’s Evening of One-Acts at 6:30 pm here in the city. I’ll be reading David Masello’s fantastic play “Ancient Poem” with Katie May Porter and Rick Trabucco, directed by Gene Santarelli. The event is free and open to the public, but will sell out fast as it has for years in the past. Get your tickets here!
From the program: “The short one-act play often has the longest effect on an audience, for what needs to be said, conveyed, and acted out must happen in a brief amount of time. Once again, the National Arts Club is proud to host its annual evening of new works by notable playwrights, featuring original pieces in which themes are conveyed that resonate well beyond the stage, or, in our case, the Grand Gallery. The three plays performed this evening as staged readings by seasoned actors mix the humorous and the poignant, the dramatic and the light-hearted. Isn’t that what life is all about? The theater relies on audiences, for they are as much a part of the realization of a play as anyone on stage. Join us.”
