The Brick Theater Presents REDBEARD & DOMICELLA 6/4-27
by Charlie Piane - May 12, 2010


In Redbeard & Domicella, two high school sweethearts deliver a bold retrospective of their young marriage in 'he said, she said' fashion.

The play speaks (too soon?) about instances of loss as disparate as September 11th and Michael Jackson's death, as well as Domicella's own close scrape on the wild streets of New York.
