Barefoot Theatre Company continues its bareNaked Reading Series (Molly Marinik, Program Director;
Jennie West, Co-Producer) with a reading of Trish Harnetiaux's new play WELCOME TO THE WHITE ROOM directed by Benjamin Kamine on Monday, May 13, 2013 at 7:00pm.
The reading of WELCOME TO THE WHITE ROOM is free, with extremely limited seating available. To inquire about admission please email
barefootRSVP@aol.com.
In WELCOME TO THE WHITE ROOM, we discover Ms. White, Jennings, and Mr. Paine shortly after they have arrived. We follow their journey as they attempt to figure out exactly what they are meant to be doing. There are letters that only Ms. White can read. There is the arrival of The Last Deck of Cards in the World - and with, at all times, one-thing-leading-to-another - somewhere between throwing a party, suppressing sexual tensions, and dancing a tango - this senseless world summons it's puppeteer, who's in for a big surprise.
Directed by Benjamin Kamine, the reading of WELCOME TO THE WHITE ROOM will feature a cast of
Anna Chlumsky (Veep, My Girl),
Aidan Koehler, Luke Leonard, Richard Toth and Jacob A. Ware. With special musical guest Cory Kosel.
The bareNaked Reading Series has thus far presented readings of
Joe Pintauro's SNOW ORCHID, Mike Reiss' RUBBLE, Hilary Bettis' ALLIGATOR, and
Mando Alvarado's ON THE 5:31 in New York City, and NEW PLAYS including works by
Israel Horovitz, Tyler Pascett, Michael Reyes, Danelle Eliav, Jennifer Skura, Jason Furlani, Jonathan Libman and Kristina Poe in Los Angeles.
