RUINED's Nottage, Ekulona Featured On Theater Talk Tonight

By: Mar. 27, 2009

Playwright Lynn Nottage and actress Saidah Arrika Ekulona, who are currently represented at MTC with the critically acclaimed hit play RUINED, will be featured on tonight's edition of "Theater Talk."

Nottage and Ekulona sat down with hosts Susan Haskins and Michael Riedel of the New York Post to talk about RUINED. "Theater Talk" airs locally on WNET (Channel 13) late tonight at 1 AM. Check local listings for airings outside the tri-state area.

The Manhattan Theatre Club and Goodman Theatre acclaimed co-production of RUINED is currently playing an extended engagement at New York City Center - Stage I (131 West 55th Street). Tickets are currently on sale through May 3.

From Lynn Nottage, the Obie Award-winning author of such plays as Fabulation and Intimate Apparel and director Kate Whoriskey (The Piano Teacher, Fabulation), comes this haunting, probing work about the resilience of the human spirit during times of war. Set in a small mining town in Democratic Republic of Congo, this powerful play follows Mama Nadi (Ekulona), a shrewd businesswoman in a land torn apart by civil war. But is she protecting or profiting by the women she shelters? How far will she go to survive? Can a price be placed on a human life?
