Dialogue with Three Chords (D3C) are set to celebrate a bloodier side of New York City's Irish legacy with THE PARTING GLASS. Written by Stephen Gracia and directed by Michael LoPorto, the play is set in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood in 1983. The show starts at 8pm on March 24, downstairs at Mr. Dennehy's 63 Carmine Street, New York, NY 10014.

THE PARTING GLASS sees infamous New York City gang "The Westies" take center stage in a play which Gracia describes as "the story of two brothers and their best friend trying desperately to survive a terrible mistake." The playwright went on to say the show was "an Irish tale of family, community, and bloody mayhem."

Admission is free with a $3 suggested donation, but this month all donations and book sales will be donated to the Brooklyn College BFA Acting Program's showcase. The BFA acting students fund their own showcases, where they present their work to agents and casting directors. As a frequent collaborator, D3C is proud to help support their work.

Gracia joined with LoPorto to co-found D3C in Greenwich Village in 2011. The theatrical collective is now in its fifth season of producing original theatre at Mr. Dennehy's, one of Greenwich Village's most famous Irish pubs.

THE PARTING GLASS features: Charles Everett, Ramona Floyd, Kendra Leigh Landon, Anthony Marino, Sean Meehan, and Anthony Noto and Greg Skura.

Their work has also been produced at HERE Arts Center, Dixon Place, The SOHO Gallery of Digital Art, Sargent Theatre, Makor Theater, DUMBO Theatre Exchange, Levenson Hall at Brooklyn College, and the Theaters at 45 Bleecker.
