STAGE TUBE: Highlights from RIDING THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS WITH BILLY HAYES
Returning to New York directly from a sold out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Billy Hayes recounts the riveting true story of his arrest in Istanbul in 1970 for smuggling hash, his 5 years in prison, his spiritual awakening, and his brazen, harrowing escape, rowing 17 miles across the Sea of Marmara in a raging storm in the dark of night. 39 years later, Hayes remains a mythical figure -- a cultural anti-hero known around the world.
After captivating audiences in London, New York and Edinburgh, Riding the Midnight Express with BILLY HAYES, directed by Jeffrey Altshuler, is back for a Fall engagement at Barrow Street Theatre; it opened on October 2, 2014 -- the 39th anniversary of Billy's escape from Imrali Island Prison.
