Nosedive Productions' INFECTIOUS OPPORTUNITY to Play NY Fringe Festival, 8/13-27

Wes Farley, a screenwriter known for having HIV, is enjoying national attention with his latest film. There's only one problem: he's faked his illness for the past 10 years to boost his career, and is beginning to comprehend the drawbacks of his plan. With the help of his friend Josie, Wes revisits his past and sees how an ill-advisEd White lie early in life ensnared him in his current situation.

After enjoying an extended sold-out run at the Brick Theater's Antidepressant Festival in 2009, getting nominated for a 2010 New York Innovative Theatre Award for Outstanding Original Full-Length Script and being published by Original Works Publishing, Nosedive is remounting its darkly comic Infectious Opportunity for this year's New York International Fringe Festival.
