The Birthday Club

An accident of timing forces three college classmates to put up with one another from the first week of freshman year to their 25th reunion and beyond. Now, finally, as an important milestone looms, and they get together to plan a joint event, enough is enough. The Birthday Club is a funny and poignant dissection of friendship: real, imagined, and just plain false.

The Birthday Club, written and directed by Erik Blachford, is a production of Theater Dinamundo and features the talents of:

Justin Foster (Matthew) began acting at Notre Dame de Namur University as Valentine in Twelfth Night, Johnathen Harker in Dracula, and Philinte in The Misanthrope. Professional credits: Lysander in A Midsummer's Night Dream (the Half Moon Bay Shakespeare Company) and the Playwrights Foundation's One Minute Play Festival. He played JD in the short film Take With A Grain of Salt. Justin thanks his mom, his brother Robby, and his family for their continued support in pursuing his dreams.
