Off-Broadway . . . Uptown!

Last night, I attended the Red Fern Theatre Company’s presentation of Two Rooms by Lee Blessing at the 78th Street Theatre Lab (A fabulous small theatre space) featuring my colleague and friend Brian Patacca in a strong performance as a reporter. This play is perhaps most effective in the fact that it was written almost 20 years ago and deals with a U. S. hostage in Beirut, his wife in the U.S., the government and the media involvement in the Middle East. How far we have come??? The Red Fern Theatre Company produces socially responsible works but also partners with organizations to further their causes. The Bellevue/NYU Program for Survivors of Torture is the partner for this production. It was a great evening with actor friends Kate Tellers and Katherine Brown and Mary Poppins Music Director Brad Haak followed by after dinner chat and show anaylsis at Ruby Foo’s.
