Magnet Theater Presents CITIZEN MODELS, 3/23

Magnet Theater presents CITIZEN MODELS, Friday, March 23 at 8:30pm; Tickets $10.

Three cowboys settle their scores the old fashioned way. An old Broadway star finally attempts her long-anticipated comeback. And, in a blatantly self-referential sketch, a young comedian tries to convince his friend to come see his show. These sketches and more, in the classic Citizen Models style-- funny and good. CITIZEN MODELS is fast-paced theatrical sketch comedy that could almost be classified as "Performance Art." Written, directed, produced, and performed by Anne Fidler, Kevin Young, Paul Travisano, and Tyler Foltz.

Magnet Theater hosts a variety of performances and special events by New York's improv masters and visiting International Artists on Mondays through Sundays in March at 254 W. 29th Street, ground floor (between 7th and 8th Avenues), NYC. A detailed schedule and description of each night's line-up can be found at www.magnettheater.com.
