Cast Announced for Off-Broadway's My First Time

Ken Davenport, producer of the Off-Broadway hits Altar Boyz and The Awesome 80s Prom, today announced the casting for My First Time, described as "the new play in the style of The Vagina Monologues featuring four actors in hysterical and heartbreaking stories about first sexual experiences written by real people."

Featured in the cast will be Bill Dawes (film: Evenhand, Just for Kicks; TV: "Sex and the City," "Law and Order"), Josh Heine (Jewtopia, Diving Normal, Third at Lincoln Center), Kathy Searle (The Awesome 80s Prom, Carrie; TV: "Hope & Faith," "As the World Turns") and Cydnee Welburn (Lady of Copper, Romeo and Juliet; TV: "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," "Dawson's Creek").

"In 1998, a decade before blogging began, a website was created that allowed people to anonymously share their own true stories about their 'First Time.'  The website became an instant phenomenon as over 40,000 stories poured in from around the globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny, heterosexual, homosexual, awkward, shy, sexy and everything in between.  And now, these stories and the unique characters in them are all brought to life in My First Time," state press notes.

Performances begin Thursday July 12th, for an open-ended run Off-Broadway at New World Stages/Stage 5 (340 West 50th Street, between 8th and 9th Avenues).  For tickets from as low as $25, call Telecharge.com at 212/239-6200.  For more information and group sales, call 1-888-MY1-TIME or visit www.MyFirstTimeThePlay.com.
