Tuesday, April 4, 2006; Posted: 12:04 PM - by Ben Strothmann
Martha Plimpton, Chris Sarandon, Jackie Hoffman, Trudie Styler, Jessica Hecht, Peter Bartlett and Angela Pierce appeared in the April 3rd presentation of Addictions, three new one-act plays by Tricia Walsh-Smith, at the Promenade Theatre (2162 Broadway
at 76th Street). Addictions was a one-night-only benefit performance for Caron Treatment Centers,
an internationally recognized leader in the treatment of addiction to
alcohol and drugs. The show, which delves into the lives of three
very different women and their dependencies, was directed by Peter
DuBois, Producing Director of the Public Theatre.
"Walsh-Smith, author of the play Bonkers, wrote Addictions after her
youngest brother Kevin took his own life in October 2000. Tricia and
her family realized that the tragic event was the result of his
longtime addiction to alcohol, and it is her hope that this play might
help other suffering addicts," state press notes. Visit www.caron.org for more on the Caron Foundation.
