Photo Flash: Kyra Sedgwick, Chris Bauer and More in COLUMBUS AND AMSTERDAM Benefit Reading

Scott Adsit, Chris Bauer, Edie Falco, Dayle Reyfel, and Kyra Sedgwick all starred in a benefit staged reading of Drama Desk Award winner and Emmy nominee Eugene Pack's new comedy, Columbus and Amsterdam, on August 17 at 8pm at East Hampton's Guild Hall. The evening benefited Guild Hall and The Felix Organization/Adoptees For Children whose mission is to enrich the lives of children growing up in the foster care system.

In Columbus and Amsterdam, a chance encounter with a woman from their past inadvertently turns upside down the emotional and sexual lives of two Manhattan couples. 

Check out photos from the reading below!

Eugene Pack is the creator of the Off-Broadway hit comedy sensation Celebrity Autobiography which won him the Drama Desk Award. The show is currently on a worldwide tour with a rotating line up of performers. Pack is also an Emmy Award-nominated writer and executive producer.

He has written and performed the critically acclaimed one man comedy shows The Senior, Something Flexible With Meaning, and Undisputed: My Night with the Queen of Soul. His full-length play Stan The Man, developed at Theatre West, was optioned for the screen and is slated to open in NY next year.
