Mee's LIMONADE TOUS LES JOURS Gets NYC Premiere at The Cell, 4/3 - 4/18

Joie de Théâtrale with The New Voice Project will present the NYC Premiere of "Limonade Tous les Jours," a romantic comedy (in english), written by Charles L. Mee, and directed by Diana Basmajian. The show will have a limited-run at The Cell Theatre in Chelsea playing April 3rd - April 18th. 

Set in Paris, Limonade Tous les Jours is a delightful & sparkling romantic comedy that tells the story of an American man who meets a French woman in a cafe. Both of them are recovering from recent ruined love relationships. They spend the day wandering through the city together, and speak of all the reasons why they shouldn't fall in love. And so of course, they do.

Limonade Tous les Jours' cast includes Austin Pendleton (film, TV, stage, director, playwright, actor), Eleanor Handley (Hudson Valley Shakespeare, Arts
Center of Coastal Carolina, New School for Drama) and Anton Briones (Seussical with TheatreWorks).

"I do love this play of Charles Mee's. I think it's one of his very best, out of a vast and to me glorious body of work," said Austin Pendleton "It's completely knowing and sophisticated about its wonderfully tricky subject - the romance between an older American man and a fabulously complicated young French woman, in Paris - and yet, under Diana's direction, it's as free and innocent as an unmuddied French fountain. And playing it with Eleanor Handley, is a joyous experience."

"We're thrilled to present this play and our amazing cast at The Cell Theatre in Chelsea," said director Diana Basmajian. "With universal themes of love and companionship, presented with humor and heart, we're sure audiences will delight in seeing this show. Plus how exciting to have the first pairing of two NY theatre legends - Pendleton and Mee."
