Photo FLASH: PTERODACTYLS at Pop Up Theater, Inc.

POP UP THEATER, INC. is thrilled to present the award-winning play, PTERODACTYLS, written by Nicky Silver (The Lyons), produced by Grafton Doyle and directed by Melanie Weisner (Becky Shaw). PTERODACTYLS will open on Friday, September 1 at 8pm and runs through Sunday, September 24 at The Commissary at The Culver Studios, 9336 Washington Blvd. in Culver City.

A classic dysfunctional family is the vehicle for a descent into chaos, and this viciously hilarious yet touching story addresses the classic question: "Why are we here?" PTERODACTYLS suggests that our extinction is beginning not with an asteroid or an ice age but rather with a severed connection to the ones closest to us. Nominated for various awards including a Drama Desk award for Best Play, PTERODACTYLS is an unmissable adventure by the award-winning writer of The Lyons, Nicky Silver--one the freshest new playwrights of this generation.

PTERODACTYLS will open on Friday, September 1 at 8pm and run through Sunday, September 24 at The Commissary at The Culver Studios, 9336 Washington Blvd. in Culver City.

Performances are Fridays & Saturdays at 8:00pm; Sundays at 2pm.

Ticket prices are $25.00 for all performances. Tickets are available online at thepopuptheater.org and pterodactyls.eventbrite.com
