Written and Performed by Geraldine Hughes
Contributing Director - Carol Kane
New York, NY – Anjelica Huston and The Culture Project (Allan Buchman, Artistic Director) in association with "That's Us" Productions present the New York premiere of the internationally acclaimed, award-winning one-woman play BELFAST BLUES written and performed by Geraldine Hughes with contributing direction by Carol Kane.Set in Belfast in the 1970's and 1980's, BELFAST BLUES is one wee girl's story of family, war, Jesus and Hollywood. Simultaneously funny and tragic, this touching piece allows Ms. Hughes to portray 24 different characters from her parents and neighbors to, most importantly, her younger self. "It's drawn from my memories of growing up in war-torn Belfast. Maybe telling my story will not only give people an insight about kids in war, but will inspire others to tell their story as well," said Ms. Hughes.
BELFAST BLUES will play the following performance schedule at THE CULTURE PROJECT (45 Bleecker Street): Tuesday through Saturday at 8:00PM with matinees on Saturday & Sunday at 4:00PM. Tickets are $45 for all performances and may be purchased online at www.ticketmaster.com or by calling 212-307-4100. Student Rush tickets are $20 and will be available at the box office only one-hour prior to curtain with valid I.D. Additional information may be obtained by calling the box office at 212-253-9983.
