On Monday October 10th, 2005 at 7pm, there will be a special benefit performance of Andrea Reese's Cirque Jacqueline at The Triad Theater in Manhattan, (158 West 72nd Street), with all proceeds from this event going directly to The American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund.

Cirque Jacqueline is Reese's one-woman play about Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis that she has been performing in New York City and around the country for over three years. "In Cirque Jacqueline, we meet the real Jackie who hid beneath a carefully constructed public persona," according to press notes. "Memorable...An absorbing and dignified one woman show," stated The Boston Globe.

Cirque Jacqueline, which runs at 85 minutes, is directed by Charles Messina, who has been slated to direct the upcoming Broadway musical about tragic opera singer Mario Lanza, Be My Love. He wrote the feature film Spy, starring Vincent Pastore, Frank Vincent, and Ben Curtis, which will soon be released. Also in the play in a surprise role is Paul Urban. Peter Martin, The Triad Theater's owner, and everyone connected with the benefit are generously donating their services.

For reservations, call (212) 501-2584. A contribution of $40, payable at the door in cash or check made out to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund, is suggested.
