FRIGID New York to Present Battalion Theatre's THE DRUNKEN CITY, 9/11-28

Horse Trade will present a FRIGID New York production of Battalion Theatre's The Drunken City by Adam Brock, September 11th through 28th at UNDER St. Marks (94 St. Marks Place between 1st Avenue and Avenue A). The production will be directed by Emma Johnson and feature Kullan Edberg (The Understudy at The Kraine), Daniel Gonon (Tramp(ed) at the 2012 United Solo Theatre Festival), Gadi Rubin (A User's Guide to Hell with Project Y Theatre Company), and Gerrit Thurston (Straight White Men with Young Jean Lee).

On yet another blurry evening of partying, three twenty-something brides-to-be discover how quickly the world can change after a chance encounter with two handsome strangers. Battalion Theater dances with life and alcohol in Adam Bock's hilarious comedy The Drunken City, exploring the honesty that erupts at the intersection of liberation and libation.

The Drunken City will play at UNDER St. Marks (94 St. Marks Place between 1st Avenue and Avenue A) September 11-28, Friday and Saturday at 8pm with additional performances on Thursday, September 11 at 8pm and Sunday, September 21 & 28 at 3pm.
