The Seeing Place Theatre Presents WAITING FOR LEFTY, 6/9-6/26
The Seeing Place Theater will present Clifford Odet's WAITING FOR LEFTY at ATA's Sargent Theater opening June 9, 2010. This production is directed by Reesa Graham and BranDon Walker.
Inspired by the 1934 Taxi Strike, this moving classic has become one of the most important plays of the modern American theater. Set in the Depression era and dealing with the cynical exploitation of the working classes, Lefty Costello (Joseph Mancuso) leads a group of disgruntled cabbies to fight for the rights they deserve. WAITING FOR LEFTY is every bit as significant now as it was 75 years ago as new generations are confronted with the same fears and the same problems--and yet are still waiting on the world to change.
The cast includes Margret Avery, David Arthur Bachrach*, Thomas Beaudoin, Steven Beckingham*, Christoper Bischoff, Jon Dalin, John Gazzale, John Greenleaf*, Joshua Everett Johnson, Norah Elise Johnson, Ned Lynch, Tyler Moss*, Dothan Negrin, Adam Reich*, Anna Marie Sell*, Bonnie Singer, Nick Velkov*, BranDon Walker*, Jamie Watson*, and Joseph Mancuso as LEFTY COSTELLO.
WAITING FOR LEFTY plays Wednesdays through Saturday at 8 pm, June 9 through 26, 2010. General admission is $18.00, students and seniors are $15.00. The Seeing Place ATA's Sargent Theatre is located at 314 West 54th St. 4th Floor, NYC. For tickets, call 1-800-838-3006, or book online at www.brownpapertickets.com.
