Rogue Machine Presents LA Premiere of STOP KISS 7/9 Thru 8/23
Rogue Machine presents the second production in its second season, the Los Angeles premiere of Diana Son's STOP KISS. Directed by Elina de Santos and Matthew Elkins, the cast features Christian Anderson, Kristina Harrison, Justin Okin, Deborah Puette, Inger Tudor, and Jeorge Watson.
The consequences of love can be horrifying, and miraculously tender. Callie meets Sara and an astonishing chain of events is set into motion. This story pays homage to life's abrupt and unexpected transformations...and to the search for personal identity.
This play won the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding New York production. Diana Son was awarded a Barilla Kerr Award for Playwrighting. This marks the third Los Angeles premiere production (following Steppenwolf playwright Lisa Dillman's HALF OF PLENTY and Pulitzer Prize nominee Adam Rapp's BINGO WITH THE INDIANS) for one of LA's newest (and already award winning) theatre companies, Rogue Machine.
STOP KISS opens Thursday, July 9th (no performances July 11th & 12th) with reception to follow. The show will also run Friday, July 10th, and then every Thursday-Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 7pm through July 26th. Afterwards, August 2nd & 3rd and continuing Fridays & Mondays at 8pm and Sundays at 7pm in rep with TREEFALL through August 23, 2009. Check dates on website or call (323) 930-0747. Rogue Machine in Theatre Theater is located at 5041 Pico Blvd., LA, CA 90019. Tickets are $25 and may be purchased by calling (323) 960-7774 or at www.roguemachinetheatre.com.
