Gingold's Theatrical Group's 'Project Shaw' Presents BACK TO METHUSELAH: PART TWO, 10/19

Gingold's Theatrical Group's Project Shaw presents George Bernard Shaw's Back to Methuselah: Part Two on October 19, 7pm, at The Players.

Starting with Adam, Eve and The Serpent in the Garden of Eden, this rollicking play speeds through several millennia of human history--past, present (1920) and future. By the year 2100, some people have begun to live to be 300 years old. The play finally takes us to the space-age year 31,000. This is the first time the play has been presented in New York in more than fifty years, and the first time in its entirety since 1922.

Methuselah: Part Two is produced and directed by David Staller with a cast feauturing Harry Barandes, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Delphi Harrington, Katharine Houghton, John Martello, Tyler Maynard, Brian Murray, Ben Rauch, Michael Riedel, Justine Salata, Oliver Wadsworth, Lenny Wolpe and Emily Young.

Tickets are $20 and can be purchased by calling 212-352-3101 or visiting www.projectshaw.com.
