Khoros Inc.'s UNLOCKING DESIRE Closes Today, 10/8

Khoros Inc'a UNLOCKING DESIRE a play by Barbara Neri directed by John Jakary closes tonight 10/8.

At first blush UNLOCKING DESIRE seems to imagine Tennessee Williams' tragic heroine Blanche DuBois after A Streetcar Named Desire. The setting is an institution where she could have been taken. Blanche meets disparate inmates who orbit around her, evoking shadow characters in Williams' play and people from his life. Secrets are unlocked, questions answered, but all is not as it seems. Neri's play is ultimately a wholly original work - a poetic and intelligent play that will surprise and entertain as it provokes. 2011 marks the 100th anniversary of playwright Tennessee Williams' birth. UNLOCKING DESIRE becomes a fascinating homage to him.

Opening September 23, 2011 for nine performances through October 8, 2011:
Friday and Saturday September 23 and 24 at 8PM and Sunday September 25 at 3PM.
Friday and Saturday, September 30 and October 1 at 8PM and Sunday Oct 2 at 3PM.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday October 6, 7 and 8 at 8PM.

CAST: Linda Rabin Hammell, Kenny Kono, J Michael Morgan, Eric Niece, Sean Paraventi, Yolanda Perez, Madelyn Porter, Sean Rodriguez, Kristen Wagner and Krista Schafer.
