Rising Action Theatre Presents MR. CHARLES & MEXICO CITY, 7/6-25

By:

The Rising Action Theatre (840 E. Oakland Pk. Blvd., Oakland Park) presents two productions, Mr. Charles, CURRENTLY OF PALM BEACH, and MEXICO CITY, from July 9th to July 25th. These plays do include adult themes and nudity so discretion is advised.

Performance times are Fridays at 8 PM, Saturdays at 3 and 8 PM, and Sundays at 7 PM. Tickets are $29.95 and there is a special with Primavera Restaurant that offers a three-course dinner with a show tickets for $49.95. Tickets may be purchased online at http://risingactiontheatre.tix.com/ or by calling 1-800-595-4849.

Mr. Charles, CURRENTLY OF PALM BEACH, was written by Paul Rudnick. Mr. Charles is a late night local television host who is too gay for daytime TV. Along with his hunky assistant (who appears in and out of several outfits), he shares his views on everything gay and answers questions from the studio audience. This short comedy is coupled with David Leddick's original play, MEXICO CITY, and both will star Mr. Leddick himself.

David Leddick is a well-known author and performer in South Florida, and has been seen at Rising Action Theatre in Eleven O'Clock Number, Some Men and his own production of Escorts, the Docu-Musical. He is ably supported by Rising Action favorites Merry Jo Cortada and Stefan Pinto.

Rising Action Theatre, Inc. is dedicated to promoting and educating the public in diversity and tolerance for all people through theatre arts. It will present plays with multi-cultural themes and works of social relevance. More information can be found at its website: http://www.risingactiontheatre.com.
