CEDAR CITY FALLS Featuring Rubin-Vega, Martin, Jennings Grant And More Gears Up For Opening, 10/6

As previously reported, former "Sex and the City" writers are teaming up to write a weekly downtown theatrical soap titled Cedar City Falls - a Mid-West Conflict with LAByrinth Theater Company members. Performances will be every Tuesday night at 7:00 and 9:30 at the Cell Theater beginning October 6 for four weeks (through October 27) and will continue its final four weeks at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn ( November 4 - 24).

Cedar City Falls tells the story of a small peaceful town filled with hard-working, God-fearing folk who, due to a series of unfortunate incidents and petty squabbles, gets plunged into full-scale civil war. It's a parable (and parody) of conflict escalation, war, activism, peace and redemption.

With traditional "Soap Operas" being canceled or on the chopping block, the innovative former writers from "Sex in the City" look to take the genre to a whole new -old-school level- live and in front of a theatre audience. Cedar City Falls reunites the foursome back in the city, led by Liz Tuccillo ("Sex and the City," He's Just Not That Into You), writers, Elisa Zuritsky, Julie Rottenberg (Emmy-nominated) and Cindy Chupack (Emmy-winner) agreed to team up to try their hand at live theater, joining the "Sex in the City" ladies are writers Craig Carlisle and Jacquelyn Reingold .

Each week offers the opportunity to get up-close and personal with the ever changing residents of Cedar City Falls as weekly guest stars including the first week's narrator Jesse L. Martin (Rent, "Law & Order") other guest starts include: Talia Balsam ("Mad Men"), Nadia Dajani ("Delocated"), Kate Jennings Grant (Guys & Dolls), Daphne Rubin Vega (Rent, Film:Wild Things, Flawless), Grant Shaud ("Murphy Brown"), John Slattery ("Mad Men"), and Joyce Van Patten (Marley & Me, "Desperate Housewives"). Musical direction by Allison Leyton Brown.

All box office proceeds go to a different human rights charity every week, such as Amnesty International, Doctors without Borders, and Center for Constitutional Rights.

CEDAR CITY begins Oct. 6 at the Cell Theatre, where the show will play for a few weeks before finishing out its run at Galapagos in Brooklyn. For more information, visit www.thecelltheatre.org/
