World Premiere 'The Gates Of Choice'

"THE GATES OF CHOICE" GETS ITS WORLD PREMIERE AT NEW THEATRE

New Theatre continues with its second World Premiere of the season with Michelle Rosenfarb's coming of age drama, The Gates of Choice making its debut on November 13, 2008.  Set in Israel 's Ultra Orthodox quarter of Mea Shearim, a Hasidic young woman facing an arranged marriage finds refuge and answers in a taboo relationship to the secular world.  Fueled by her curious nature and longing for identity, she delves further to find "the truth" forming the foundation of her religion, her community, and her family.

Ms. Rosenfarb is a recipient of the Emerging Artist Foster Fellowship granted by the Broward County Cultural Arts Foundation and winner of the 17th Annual Florida Playwright Competition. 

Under the direction of New Theatre's Artistic Director, Ricky J. Martinez, New Theatre veterans, Bill Schwartz (known to many as retired City of Miami Police Lieutenant William Schwartz,) Kim Ehly, and recent Shakespeare's As You Like It apprentice, David Sirois, return to form part of the cast with Valentina Izarra and Laura Turnbull, both making their New Theatre debut.  Returning to New Theatre will be Production Stage Manager Clint Hooper, Costume Designer K. Blair Brown and making his New Theatre debut, Scenic & Lighting Designer Dudley Pinder.
