Labyrinth Theater to Stage Mona Mansour's THE WAY WEST; Performances Begin Next Month
Labyrinth Theater Company presents the New York premiere of The Way West by Mona Mansour. The production, February 25-April 6, is directed by Labyrinth Artistic Director Mimi O'Donnell and features Labyrinth Company Member and Obie award-winner Deirdre O'Connell. The Way West is a new, offbeat comedy about life and debt.
In the play, Mom (O'Donnell) has entered a new chapter in her life: Chapter 11. Of course, that doesn't stop her from spending money... Or borrowing money... Or loaning out money... Or digging herself deeper and deeper into debt. When her two daughters decide to stage a financial intervention, things look like they're getting better. Until they don't.
Joining O'Donnell in The Way West are Nadia Bowers as Manda, Curran Connor as Robbie/Delivery Guy, Alfredo Narcisco as Luis, Anna O'Donoghue as Meesh, and Portia as Tress.
The creative team includes David Meyer (sets), Bradley King (lights), Ryan Rumery (sound), Ásta Bennie Hostetter (costumes) and Lily Perlmutter (production stage manager).
Performances of The Way West will take place February 25-April 6 (see schedule above) at Bank Street Theater, located at 155 Bank Street in Manhattan. Critics are welcome as of Friday, March 11 for an official opening on Wednesday, March 16 at 7:00pm. Tickets are $30-$40 and can be purchased by visiting labtheater.org or by calling 212.513.1080.
