Our first three shows of Books on Tape have gone off beautifully in the New York International Fringe Festival (with two more coming up on August 27 @ 7 pm and 28 @ 1:15 pm).
Some high points:
A sold out crowd for opening night, followed by boisterous drinks at Dorian Gray bar across the street with playwright Bill Downs, who flew in for our Fringe debut and New York City premiere of his work.
A stellar review on NYTheatre.com:
"Playwright William Missouri Downs has given us a well-balanced tale. ...Director Brock H. Hill has made desperate into funny. Jake Lipman (Adriane) is as charming as she is needy. Nate Washburn (Jeffrey) is amusing, as even an actor he cannot play along with the absurdity of his lovers. Geoffrey J.D. Payne (Father Larry) is convincing as the ultimate yes-man. Shana Wiersum's Donna Paige Miller is so self-centered she is ready to sue Kitty Kelley for writing her unauthorized biography--hysterical!"
Wonderful audiences who have praised the underlying message of the show, its witty script and strong ensemble.
Please tell your friends to come see Books on Tape and be sure to vote for us as FringeNYC Audience Favorite. Thank you to all who have come out to support us!
