THE IMMORTAL COIL Premieres at John DeSotelle Studio Theater Tonight

The World Premiere of J.B. Heaps new comedy, The Immortal Coil will be presented at The John DeSotelle Studio Theater, tonight, June 17 - 28. The production is directed by Stephen Jobes, J.B. Heaps produces with associate producer Annie R. Such. J.B. Heaps last play, Private Disclosures premiered last year where it received rave reviews. Theatre Pizzazz said "you won't find a more literate, funny and fascinating play on or off Broadway at this time."

In the daunting intimacy of a black box theater, Benji has the opportunity to work with his idol, the once prominent, now forgotten Erasmus Bernstein, on his new play. However, the magic quickly wears off, as Benji suffers emotional abuse at the hands of the has-been playwright, and jumps ship with the offer to star in a big-budget feature. Years later, in the same black box, Benjamin, now a renowned movie star, meets two actors who are about to stage a reading of his first play, a re-telling of his experience with Erasmus. Though Bernstein has been lost to the ages, mystical forces make sure Benji's side of the story isn't the only one that's heard.

The production features Tony Del Bono (A Moment in Time/ Chernuchin Theater), Eric Kuehnemann (An Infinite Ache/Access Theatre), John Michalski (Under My Skin/Little Shubert Theatre), and Spencer Wilson (Sweet Bye and Bye/York Theatre).
