LOS ANGELES -

After a sold-out run of An Evening of One-Acts by Ethan Coen and a feature in the LA Times, Foster Cat Productions and co-producer Jan McAdoo (The Trial of the Chicago 7) have revamped the show and are bringing it back to Hollywood as a part of a Festival of Monumental Jewish Playwrights in a larger theatre with new cast members!

At 905 Cole Theatre in Hollywood, from Feb 29th to Apr 7th, THREE SHOWS will perform in rotation (a different show each night!)

 

In Five One-Act Plays by Wendy Wasserstein, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and legendary feminist icon of the American theatre shows her irreverence and humanity, in just under an hour, through this series of short lesser known comedic plays.

CAST: Mia Schachter, Isabella Costa, Lizzy Rudakas, Mariluna Beacy, Elliot White, Harry White, Cooper McAdoo, and Clark Pavlik

 

Returning to Hollywood, An Evening of One-Acts by Ethan Coen features new cast members including Sarah Natochenny (Pokemon the Animated TV Series). The plays explore the enigmatic and fragile nature of the human ego. Questions are raised, few are answered. Not because of some greater cosmic power, but just... because.

CAST: Sarah Natochenny, Scott Thiede, Elliot White, Harry White, Will Fulginiti, Eden Rousso, Cooper McAdoo
