STAGE TUBE: ReVision Theatre's Cast and Creative Team Talk RED

For the first time in its five year history in Asbury Park, ReVision Theatre will be producing a drama, Red. Take a look at what the cast and director are saying about the show in the video!

This gripping play by John Logan (who resided in New Jersey for a time) about the abstract expressionist artist Mark Rothko was originally produced in London in December 2009 and transferred to Broadway in 2010. The Broadway production won six Tony Awards including Best Play. This intense and exciting two-character bio-drama starred Tony nominated Alfred Molina and Tony & Olivier winner Eddie Redmayne (Broadway debut) and ran for 101 performances.

Set in a New York studio in the Bowery as the artist Rothko sets out to paint a series of murals for a lucrative commission at the Four Seasons in New York City, his assistant, Ken, questions Rothko's theories of art and decision to accept such a commercial project and plants doubts about the appropriateness of hanging his paintings in such a “temple of consumption.”

Red runs now through September 9 at Theatre at Saint George, 700 Grand Ave in Asbury Park, NJ.
