All-Female Cast to Play the Men of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis in City Lit's THIRTEEN DAYS

The October 1962 days in which the world appeared to be on the brink of nuclear war will be revisited in a world premiere adaptation of Robert F. Kennedy's THIRTEEN DAYS: A MEMOIR OF THE CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS. Brian Pastor, the Chicago writer-director-actor who serves as Artistic Director of Promethean Theatre Ensemble and Executive Director of Sideshow Theatre Company, has adapted Kennedy's account of the administration of President John F. Kennedy to the discovery that the Soviet Union was installing missile sites in Cuba, just 90 miles from the U.S.. As with City Lit's acclaimed 2017 production of Archibald MacLeish's J.B., which Pastor also directed, the powerful men of THIRTEEN DAYS will be played by a diverse ensemble of women. All the characters in the book are white males; none of the actors onstage will be. THIRTEEN DAYS will open to the press on March 15 at 3 pm, following previews from March 6, and will play through April 19.

Endangered Species Project Presents THE WINSLOW BOY

The Endangered Species Project has announced their first Terence Rattigan play: The Winslow Boy, from 1946, a masterfully-constructed work that is also a totally engaging emotional experience. The play is a fictional version of an actual court case which had occurred three years before Rattigan was born: The Arche-Shee family had sued the British Admiralty for a false accusation of theft lodged against their naval cadet son, leading to a political sensation. Rattigan changed much of the circumstances of the actual case, but in the character of Sir Robert Morton he kept many of the attributes of the barrister who led the original charge, Sir Edward Carson: a thoroughgoing conservative - one of the prosecutors of Oscar Wilde - who, against expectation, agreed to take on the Admiralty.
