TV: 'Upright's West Side Stories': TIME STANDS STILL at the Geffen

By:


BroadwayWorld.com, the premiere theatre site on the internet, is proud to continue its newest offering in the streaming video space. 'Upright's West Side Stories' chronicles the adventures of Upright Cabaret producer/hosts Chris Isaacson and Shane Scheel as they travel the left coast in search of great theatre... and a few cocktails. Featuring talent from the Great White Way to the sandy beaches of LA, 'Upright's West Side Stories' takes you up close and personal with some of your favorite entertainers in show business.

Recently, the boys of Upright Cabaret sat down with the stars of the world premiere play TIME STANDS STILL. Written by Pulitzer winner Donald Margulies (Dinner with Friends) directed by Tony Award winner Daniel Sullivan (Proof) and starring Anna Gunn (HBO's Deadwood, AMC's Breaking Bad), Alicia Silverstone (Clueless, Miss Match), David Harbour (Quantum of Solace, Revolutionary Road, State of Play) and Robin Thomas (Damages, Murphy Brown) at the Geffen Playhouse.

Time Stands Still opened February 11, 2009 on the theater's main stage. Shortly after, Chris and Shane sat down with the cast to discuss their characters and the evolution of this world premiere play.
