D3C Partners with Brooklyn College's BFA Acting program for Season Opener, 3/26

Greenwich Village mainstay Dialogue with Three Chords (D3C) teams with Brooklyn College, the alma-mater of D3C co-founders Stephen Gracia and Michael LoPorto, to present their spring season opening performance: "Loved To The Point Of Madness." Described by Gracia as "a collection of romantic manifestos for the beautiful and doomed," the shorts pair Brooklyn College BFA Acting program undergrads with seasoned D3C actors. LoPorto, who directs the staged readings of Gracia's latest collection of short plays said: "our process is fast by design, and we require people who can make choices, commit to those choices, and see them through; and Brooklyn College churns out just those kind of actors." The performance will feature live music and admission is free, with any donations going towards the BFA actors' showcase later this year. The show starts at 8pm on March 26 at Dennehy's on 63 Carmine Street, New York, NY 10014.
