Algonquin Theatre Company and Pierre Weidemann will present "National Pastime," the comedy which has appeared in the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame, for one week only here in Manhattan August 21st-24th. "National Pastime" is the story of a small 1930's radio station which cannot compete for the rights to broadcast a real baseball team's games....so they create their own team!

The play features Jessica Arinella, Stephen Bradbury, Ethan Cadoff, Michael Lewis, Kelli Maguire, Joan Pelzer, Matthew Rashid, Len Rella and Angela Stellute.
