Event
MARY DIMINO and WHEN WE HAVE GONE ASTRAY
February 18th.
WHEN WE HAVE GONE ASTRAY at 8pm
This hysterically poignant play by Seeing Place Artistic Director Brandon Walker provides an entertaining look at the modern-day struggles of three twenty-something New Yorkers in the current economic recession. Ira Trask, a lonely and struggling actor, decides that New Years Eve, 2008 will be his last day in New York City - and what better way to break in the new year than with a holiday hooker? Only one problem: she turns out to be an old flame from his childhood, Cassie, who has just been turned out onto the street. This unpredictable reunion is mediated by Keith, a trust fund baby who now delivers pizzas after losing all his money to Ponzi-schemer Bernie Madoff. During the course of the evening, Cassie, Ira and Keith all humorously struggle to face the compromises they must make in this troubling American recession. Featuring Heather Lee Harper, Joseph Mancuso, and Brandon Walker.
