Beth Leavel to Lead Industry Reading of CONVERSATIONS WITH MOTHER

Tony Award Winner Beth Leavel will play the title role in an industry reading of Matthew Lombardo's new two-character comedy CONVERSATIONS WITH MOTHER to be directed by Noah Himmelstein.

Lombardo's new play traces the relationship between Maria Collave- chio and her son, Bobby, in a work that spans over five decades. Leavel, who recently received a Tony nomination for her portrayal of Dee Dee Allen in The Prom, will play the title character that ages from 37 to 91 years old in this very funny and ardent series of vignettes which chronicle the most sacred and complicated of relationships.

Industry professionals who would like an invite to the September 12 reading should contact conversationswithmother@gmail.com.
