DIALOGUE WITH THREE CHORDS to Open Season 16 at Industry City

Dialogue with Three Chords (D3C) will bring their 16th season of indie theatre to Industry City in Brooklyn which will include new plays in September, a full production in November, and holiday events in December. Produced by brooklynONE productions (bKONE) the season opens on September 24th with 'Rumors of a Better World.'

'Rumors of a Better World' features three plays about salvation, solitary confinement, and a nickel's worth of comfort. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased at the box office or online.

D3C's Season 16 continues in November with the New York premiere of 'The Sad Truth About Country Songs,' a two-person play where Amos, a young man and career criminal, breaks out of prison to visit his dying mother for the last time. The production runs for two weeks, with shows from Thursday through Sunday, November 5th to 8th and November 12th to 15th.
