Anne Nelson's Savages Holds Talkback, March 31; Closes April 1

Anne Nelson's drama Savages, directed by Chris Jorie, is now in its final week of performances at the Lion Theatre (410 West 42nd Street, between 9th and
10th Avenues). The remaining performances are: Wednesday, March 29 through Saturday, April 1 at 8:00 p.m.

Savages "is a play about war and its consequences, for both victors and
victims—exploring the narrow distance between the two," according to press notes. "It is set in the midst of the Philippine-American Conflict in 1902, a war that was a defining moment for the Philippines but has been almost forgotten in the United States." The four-member cast features Julie Danao-Salkin (Lennon), Brett Holland, Jim Howard, and James Matthew Ryan.

Also, on Friday, March 31, following the regular performance there will be a talkback with Nelson, Dan McSweeney, and members of the cast.  McSweeney is currently pursuing a graduate degree in International Affairs at Columbia University.  Heserved on Active Duty in the Marine Corps from 1999 to 2005, deploying overseas several times and participating in operations in Kosovo and Iraq. He served as Media Officer for Plans, Policies, and Operations at Headquarters, Marine Corps, the Pentagon until last August.
