Women's Project OR, Resumes Performances This Thursday, 11/5

Women's Project is set to resume performances of Liz Duffy's OR, beginning Thursday, November 5th at 8:00pm.  Performances have been cancelled since last weekend one of the show's actors Andy Paris, who plays multiple roles in this restoration-style, fast-paced comedy, suffered an injury, as previously reported.

Or, featuring Kelly Hutchinson, Andy Paris and Maggie Siff and directed by Wendy McClellan, began previews last evening (October 29) and was scheduled to open Tuesday, November 3, at Women's Project, 424 West 55th Street.

As soon as the extent of Mr. Paris's injury is known, Ms. Crosby will make a determination as to whether to postpone the Monday press preview and the Tuesday opening.

In Or, Maggie Siff of Sons of Anarchy and Mad Men fame plays Aphra Behn with a rather complicated love life. Aphra Behn is getting out of the spy trade and into show biz, if she can only write her play without interruptions. Kelly Hutchinson and Andy Paris spin through the play as multiple characters of varying genders including 17th century A-listers Nell Gwynne, King Charles II, and super-spy and double-agent William Scott. While war rages and Aphra and her friends celebrate free love, cross-dressing and pastoral lyricism, the 1660s start to look a lot like the 1960s. Verse or prose, now or then, love or death... and a lot of kissing.

The designers are Zane Philstrom (sets), Andrea Lauer (costumes), Deb Sullivan (lights), and Elizabeth Rhodes (sound).

Upon resume, performances will take place Mondays & Tuesdays at 7:00pm, Thursdays-Saturdays at 8:00pm, and Sundays at 3:00pm. There will be one Saturday matinee on October 31 at 2:00 pm.
