Members from the upcoming Broadway cast of Hair were just added as special guests for Happy Ending Music and Reading Series. Affliction Night stars authors Jayne Anne Phillips and Sarah Manguso with musical guest Daniel Knox on February 4 at 7:00 PM.

TheaterWorks has announced the 20th Anniversary production of Alfred Uhry's Pulitzer Prize-winning Driving Miss Daisy, starring stage and screen favorite Rosemary Prinz in the title role.

We talk to, and hear from, actor/writer/composer Grant James Varjas, actor John Good, and actor/co-composer/arranger Preston Clarke. They perform 'Now That it's Over' and 'Low to the Ground'.

Transport Group Artistic Director Jack Cummings III has announced that the company will present three post-show talkbacks for its official 50th anniversary production of William Inge's The Dark at the Top of the Stairs. The talkbacks will run as follows:

As I walk into the dark and slightly unsettling North London pub I scan the room for the type of person who'd play the role of 'The Elephant Man'. Marc Pickering is the actor I'm here to meet, but the grey hair atop the balding heads around me suggest he's upstairs rehearsing. With less than two weeks before the play hits the West End, it's not surprising the cast are busy. The story of the severely deformed John Merrick is a well known one and director Bruce Guthrie and his cast have a challenge ahead of them.

After 'whacking himself' on the season opener of the hit HBO series The Sopranos, Robert Funaro now returns to the stage in DREAD AWAKENING.

'New York Citys' Original Haunted House' provides phobia-driven vignettes.

Prolific and award winning playwright J.B. Edwards will premiere EINSTEIN'S SECRET LETTERS (a love story) on Monday, September 26th at the SoHo Repertory Theatre / Walker Space.
