Tall Tale Productions in association with The Producers Club presents "Pressure-NOT ME!" an evening of five new short plays written by three of New York's hottest emerging writers and performed by New York's hippest new actors April 7-10, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 7:30 pm, and a matinee Saturday, April 9 at 2 p.m. at The Producers Club, Royal Theater, 358 W. 44th Street, New York, NY. Tickets are $15 at the door while supplies last or may be reserved by emailing info@producersclub.com.

"Pressure-NOT ME!" is produced by Tall Tale Productions to introduce New York audiences to some of New York's hottest writers and new actors. Additionally the producer says, "A percentage of our profits will go towards the education of school girls in Tanzania."

The five new one-act plays include "Love Knots" by Phil Paradis, "Stella" by Jillian Hite, "Philena, The lover of Mankind" by George Cameron Grant, "Whistle Stop Romance" by Phil Paradis, and "Push" by George Cameron Grant.

Says guest actress Beth Newbery, "These provocative plays are dramatic stories of fascinating characters in pressurized situations. From doomed and jilted lovers to young couples planning families, these delightful plays offer poignant moments sure to resonate with audiences." Newbery is directed by award-winning director and actor Laurie Rae Waugh. Says Waugh, "I've known of Beth's amazing work for some time and I'm pleased to have her onboard for this show."
