'Blue Before Morning' Begins Previews Oct.17th at DR2 Theatre

At dawn, a New York cabbie picks up a teenage girl headed for the bus station. Before long, they're driving to South Carolina, accompanied by a very pregnant, foul-mouthed hitchhiker. The three strangers hit I-95 and find themselves on a journey of unusual coincidences and second chances that straddle past and present while leading them toward an unlikely future.

BLUE BEFORE MORNING features Kether Donohue, Phyllis Johnson, Jenny Maguire, Chris McKinney, Flaco Navaja, and Jennifer Dorr White.

The creative team for BLUE BEFORE MORNING includes Suzanne Chesney (Costume Design), Katie Down (Sound Design), Obie award winning and Tony nominee, Derek McLane (Set Design), Bruce Steinberg (Lighting Design), and S. Katy Tucker (Video Design).

The production, produced by terraNOVA Collective at DR2 Theatre (103 East 15 Street, east of Union Square) will open to the press on October 19 at 7pm following preview performances on October 17 & 18 at 7pm. The show will then run Wednesday-Monday at 8pm, through November 8. Tickets ($20) are available online at www.TerraNovaCollective.org or by calling www.TeleCharge.com at 212-239-6200.
