Photo Flash: First Look at Cone Man Running Productions' OKAY BETTER BEST

By:

Cone Man Running Productions presents the World Premiere of Okay Better Best, written by Michael Weems and directed by Sam Martinez, running March 12 - 29, 2013. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the production below!

Bar bets can be a sport... Can revenge be acquired by jilted women - mercilessly seeking a patsy for one night? In turn, the men are plotting a nearly identical plot. As the knots untangle and true motivations reveal. All that's left is a ring, a few promises, and few newly made pacts. Okay Better Best dares to explore modern expectations on gender roles, the fear of change, and the smile we all hide behind.

The production stars Jessica Bell, Ross Childs, Lauren Hainley, Margaret Lewis, Russell Pierre, Katherine Rinaldi and James Wetuski.

Performance schedule: Tuesday, 03/12; Sunday, 03/17; Tuesday, 03/19; Monday, 03/25; Wednesday, 03/27; Friday, 03/29. All shows at 8PM at Obsidian Arts Space, 3522 White Oak Drive, Houston, TX.

Ticket Prices: $15/$12 for students with a valid ID at the door. Purchase tickets online by going to http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/333288 or Cone Man's website: www.conemanrunning.com. Or for reservations, email conemanprod@gmail.com.
