NOW PLAYING THIRD BASE FOR THE ST. LOUIS CARDINALS...BOND, JAMES BOND at The Midnight Company

NOW PLAYING THIRD BASE FOR THE ST. LOUIS CARDINALSBOND, JAMES BOND concerns a teen-age boy in 1964. JFKs assassination still casts a pall on the nation. The Beatles emergence in February of 64 starts to lighten the mood. The Cardinals continue the good times in St. Louis with a mad dash toward the pennant. And when a new movie hero hits the screens that summer, a bunch of boys on a baseball field have their first theatre experience, when one of their gang offers a spirited 30-minute one-man show of FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE. Throughout, the playwright draws links between whats happened and happening - from JFK to James Bond; from segregation in St. Louis to segregation in baseballs Southern Leagues and at Florida stadiums where The Beatles played; from WWII to hardcore British film production crews and JFK hit squads; from the first cave man who stood up by the fire to the theatre musings of Peter Brookmost of it swirling in front of the eyes of a young boy, most of it sharp memories of the time it was.
