Photo Flash: 'Blasted' by Sarah Kane In Rehersal at Soho Rep
By: Faetra Petillo
Soho Rep - the nine-time OBIE Award-winning, Off-Broadway theatre company - kicks off its 2008-2009 season with the New York premiere of English playwright Sarah Kane's long awaited landmark play BLASTED. Previews begin October 2nd prior to an official press opening of October 9th at Soho Rep (46 Walker Street). Soho Rep Artistic Director Sarah Benson directs.
A middle-aged journalist, Ian, and young woman, Cate, enter a hotel room. As private and public violation collide, their world fragments around them. Acknowledged as the most provocative and influential British playwright of her generation, in her landmark play BLASTED, Sarah Kane, with startling imagery and bleak humor, forges a potent theatrical vision of destruction, collapse, and ultimately, redemption and love.Scheduled October 2 through October 26, performances of BLASTED run Wednesdays - Sundays at 7:30pm (with an added performance on Tuesday, October 7 at 7:30pm). There will be an Artist Talk-Back following the performance on Wednesday, October 15. Tickets are 99 cents through $30 and can be reserved by calling TheaterMania at 212-352-3101 or online at www.sohorep.org.For additional information about BLASTED or Soho Rep, call 212-941-8632 or visit www.sohorep.orgMarin Ireland (as Cate) and Reed Birney (as Ian)
