Ann Harada and Daryl 'Chill' Mitchell Lead Reading of INTERNAL BLEEDING

On Tuesday, April 5 at 6:30 p.m., there will be a special exploratory staged reading of INTERNAL BLEEDING by Christine Toy Johnson, starring Daryl "Chill" Mitchell (television's "Brothers", "Ed" and "The John Larroquette Show") and Ann Harada ("Avenue Q", "9 to 5", "Les Miserables"), directed by Robert McQueen. The reading will be the culmination of a short workshop exploring casting an actor with a disability (Mr. Mitchell) in a role that is written as both disabled and non-disabled.

Afterwards, there will be a panel discussion about the results of the workshop. The play also features Eddie Aldrich, Helen Farmer, Jaygee Macapugay and Ariel Estrada and will take place on the second floor of Actors' Equity Association, 165 West 46 Street, New York City.

Admission is free, but seating is limited, so please RSVP to Pearl Brady at 212-869-8530, ext. 346, or by emailing eeo@actorsequity.org.

INTERNAL BLEEDING is sponsored by the Equal Employment Opportunity Committee of Actors' Equity Association and is also made possible in part with public funds from the Manhattan Community Arts Fund, supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and administered by Lower Manhattan Cultural Council. Additional funding has been made possible by the Puffin Foundation.
