THE AMISH PROJECT Solo Work By Jessica Dickey Comes To Rattlestick 6/4-6/28

Rattlestick Playwrights Theater will present The Amish Project, a solo work written and performed by Jessica Dickey. Performances begin on Thursday, June 4th. Opening night is Wednesday, June 10th at 8pm. The show will run through Sunday, June 28th. Sarah Cameron Sunde directs.

A fictional exploration of true events, The Amish Project is the story of a schoolhouse shooting in an Amish community, and the path of forgiveness and compassion forged in its wake. Imbued with poetry and humor, The Amish Project investigates a community grappling with loss and faith. The show was a sensation in the 2008 New York International Fringe Festival. It was workshopped at the Cherry Lane Theatre and is being presented in association with Nora Productions. The Amish Project is represented by Morgan Jenness at Abrams Artists Agency.

The creative team is comprised of Lauren Helpern (sets & costumes), Nicole Pearce (lights) and Jill BC DuBoff (sound). Kelly Shaffer is Production Stage Manager.

The Amish Project will have the following performance schedule: Monday at 8pm, Wednesday - Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 3pm. Tickets are $35.00 and are available through SmartTix (212-868-4444) or www.smarttix.com. Rattlestick Playwrights Theater is located at 224 Waverly Place (off Seventh Avenue South - between West 11th & Perry Streets).
