FRESHLY SQUEEZED CREATIVE JUICES THEATRE COMPANY, Shoshona Currier, and Kelcie Beene today announced the world premiere production of Liat Ron's GUTS, directed by Shoshona Currier. GUTS will play 14 performances only at The 9th Space (150 First Avenue on the corner of East 9th Street). Performances begin Thursday, November 3 and continue through Sunday, November 20. Opening Night is Saturday, November 5 (8 p.m.). Press Nights are November 4, 5, 6.

Hellthy is a superwoman--smart, savvy, Israeli-American-New Yorker...she should have it all, why is it so hard?

When Hellthy moves back to Israel, after an exhausting breakup, she is the center of attention for her over-bearing parents. Hellthy battles with a dangerous obsession to fit into a size 0, at any cost. Her heart never seems to be in sync with her brain and her diary is her only real confidante.

How does she overcome it all? -- She has GUTS!

Written and performed by Liat Ron, GUTS is a multi-media fantasia that uses Middle Eastern dance and a shockingly honest comedic narrative to tell Hellthy's story. It's the story of womanhood, testing ones internal strength, and making a way in two very different worlds.

The production is produced by Shoshona Currier, in association with Kelcie Beene, featuring scenic design and props by Eric Beauzay, costume design by Sydney Maresca, and lighting design by Jason Jeunnette. Elisabeth Rhodes is the sound designer, Kaz Phillips is the video designer, and Zhenesse Heinemann is the stage manager.

GUTS plays the following regular schedule through Sunday, November 20:

Wednesdays at 8 p.m.
Thursdays at 8 p.m.
Fridays at 8 p.m.
Saturdays at 8 p.m.
Sundays at 5 p.m.
