STAGE TUBE: Promo - Manuel Igrejas's MARGARITA AND MAX, Coming to MITF 2013

By:



Margarita and Max, a new play by Manuel Igrejas, will star Kim McKean and Craig Fox at the Midtown International Theater Festival, directed by David Hilder. The show runs for three performances: Tuesday, July 23rd, Saturday, July 27th and Sunday, July 28th, at the Dorothy Strelsin Theater, 312 West 36th St. A lonely woman. A windy day. A plastic bag: a love story. Click below to watch a promo for the show!

Margarita is having a rough time. She's unemployed, broke and newly unattached. She's on her way to catch a bus to New York City to interview for a menial job she probably won't get. She could use a miracle. A strong spring breeze blows one of those ubiquitous black plastic bags into her path...and into her life. This is no ordinary bag and this is no ordinary day.

Manuel Igrejas' previous plays include Shrinkage, Kitty and Lina, Miss Mary Dugan and Hassan and Sylvia (both Fresh Fruit Festival Best Play winners.) Margarita and Max is directed by David Hilder who won the 2009 Best Director Award at the Fresh Fruit Festival and directedHassan and Sylvia. His other NYC credits include Blogologues and Daddy.

Margarita and Max stars Kim McKean and Craig Fox. A recent transplant to New York, Kim McKean has extensive theater credits in Chicagoand California and has appeared on HBO's "True Blood" and ABC's "Private Practice." Craig Fox has performed with the Texas Shakespeare Festival, the Lark Theatre and NY Stage and Film. He won the Best Actor Award in the Fresh Fruit Festival for Miss Mary Dugan in 2009 and reprised the role of Kevin Pecinka in 2012. He can be seen at HA! Comedy Club and clubs all over NYC.
