Due to popular demand, The Blank Theatre Company is pleased to announce an extension of the west coast premiere of THE JAZZ AGE, written by Allan Knee, directed by Michael Matthews and produced in association with Jana Robbins Productions. THE JAZZ AGE, which began performances on The Blank's 2nd Stage on Saturday, February 7, 2009 has sold-out every performance, received excellent reviews and standing ovations.
Luke MacFarlane, Jeremy Gabriel, and Heather Prete star in the Blank Theatre Company's production of Allan Knee's play THE JAZZ AGE. The production runs now through March 22, 2009. F. Scott Fitzgerald. Ernest Hemingway. Zelda Fitzgerald. Literary history's most intriguing characters. This sexy new play goes inside their minds to fantasize on the question of 'inspiration'. Punctuated by the pulsating beat of a live jazz trio, THE JAZZ AGE asks the compelling question 'Why do we do what we do?'
Christine Lahti has withdrawn from headlining in the world premiere of 'The Busy World is Hushed,' by Playwright Horizons. Jill Clayburgh, currently in Barefoot in the Park, will now assume the role.
Playwrights Horizons (Tim Sanford, Artistic Director; Leslie Marcus, Managing Director) has announced additional casting and new details for the company's final production of its 2005/2006 35th Anniversary Season, the World Premiere of THE BUSY WORLD IS HUSHED, a new play by Keith Bunin (The Credeaux Canvas and The World Over, both at Playwrights Horizons).
