RACE's Red Dresses Take Over Times Square on March 24th

To celebrate the arrival of spring, RACE will take over Times Square on Wednesday, March 24, 2010 from 11 am - 1 pm and will have nearly two dozen women wear red sequined dresses for the public. This event will also celebrate the fact that RACE is currently the longest-running play of this Broadway season. The women will be coming from all over the city to wear the show's famous red sequined dress, a major plot point in the play.

RACE, the critically acclaimed new play written and directed by David Mamet, stars James Spader, David Alan Grier, Kerry Washington and Richard Thomas.

RACE is Pulitzer Prize winner David Mamet's (Glengarry GLen Ross, The Untouchables, Speed-the-Plow) most explosive four-letter word yet and proves that nothing is as simple as black-and white. Three-time Emmy® Award winner James Spader ("Boston Legal"), David Alan Grier ("In Living Color"), Kerry Washington (Ray) and Emmy® Award winner Richard Thomas (Democracy) star in this incendiary story about the perceptions and realities that color our world - and the subtle shades between being a victim and being victimized.

Tickets for RACE may be purchased by visiting Telecharge.com or calling (212) 239-6200. RACE is making its world premiere at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre (located at 243 West 47th St.).
