Shannen Doherty & Ralph Macchio to Star in A ROOM OF MY OWN Pre-Broadway Reading

By: Aug. 22, 2010


On Monday, September 20th at 8:00pm, the Bleecker Street Theater Company will present a reading of Charles Messina's astoundingly hilarious new Broadway-bound comedy, "A ROOM OF MY OWN" as part of that theater's Play Development Series.

Mr. Messina will direct the cast of eight that includes Ralph Macchio, Mario Cantone, Shannen Doherty, Gina Ferranti, Valerie Smaldone, Kendra Jain, Adam Trese and John Barbieri.

Produced by Robert Nicotra and Josselyne Herman-Saccio "A ROOM OF MY OWN" will be presented only once at 45 Bleecker (at the corner of Bleecker and Lafayette Streets) before being readied for future national productions. TEd Kurdyla is the Executive Producer.

"A ROOM OF MY OWN" is a two-act play that revolves around a playwright's Herculean attempt to tell his story of growing up in a tiny studio apartment inside a crumbling five-flight-walk-up on Thompson Street in Greenwich Village with his certifiably insane Italian-American family.
