James Earl Jones, Peter Riegert, Mercedes Ruehl, and Harris Yulin Star in ARE YOU NOW OR HAVE YOU EVER BEEN? Concert Reading
A riveting drama about the infamous 1950s House Unamerican Activities Committee where those in entertainment were subpoenaed to testify as to their loyalty as Americans and asked to name anyone who was, or suspected of being, a communist. Assembled directly from the transcripts of the hearings, the play uses actual words spoken by Lionel Stander, Abe Burrows, Lillian Hellman, Larry Parks, Elia Kazan, Jerome Robbins, and Jose Ferrer. Equally revealing are the questions asked by the committee members.
Saturday, September 9 at 8pm
Directed by Harris Yulin
Starring James Earl Jones, Peter Riegert, Mercedes Ruehl, and Harris Yulin with additional cast TBD
From $30/$28 Members - $50/$48 Members
