Co-presented with ReAct Theatre. Elliott Bay's Eleventh Annual Staged Play Reading Series kicks off a new season with a fully staged reading of the celebrated modern American play, Eastern Standard by Richard Greenberg. How do you tell the man you really love that you have the AIDS virus? How does your sister react to the news of your illness when she's trying to start a relationship of her own? How does an architect make amends to society for years of creating skyline monstrosities? And can all these questions really be answered by playing Pygmalion with a elderly bag lady? "For anyone who has been waiting for a play that tells what it is like to be more or less middle-class, more or less young and more or less well-intentioned in a frightening city at this moment in this time zone, Eastern Standard at long last is it." - The New York Times. Please join us for this unique blend of theatrical staging and the spoken word. Suggested donation ($5) at the door. Reservations encouraged. For more information visit www.reacttheatre.org.
