Photo Flash: Phoenix Mainstage Presents YANKEE TAVERN
By: Gabrielle Sierra Apr. 06, 2010
Alfred Hitchcock meets Oliver Stone in this fascinating and funny new play set in a dusty old New York City bar. Here, a charismatically cantankerous regular argues conspiracy theories with anyone who will listen. The young owner behind the bar just wants to pour beer, marry his fiancée, and live happily ever after. Then a stranger walks in and orders a drink for himself and his invisible buddy, setting off a thriller that grips you until the very last word. When the young man disappears, everyone gets caught up in "what if" and tries to solve the mystery. Is it just cold feet or only the tip of a deadly iceberg?
Runs April 8-May 1
