Rapp's Red Light Winter to Close Off-Broadway, June 25

The Obie Award-winning production of Red Light Winter, a new play written and directed by Adam Rapp, will close on Sunday, June 25 at the Barrow Street Theatre (27 Barrow Street), following the 7:00 PM performance. The production will have played 158 performances and 23 previews.

Red Light Winter opened at the Barrow Street Theatre on February 9, 2006, following its world premiere at Steppenwolf Theatre Company. The production won Obie Awards for author Rapp, and actor Gary Wilmes, and a Lortel Award for actor Christopher Denham. Red Light Winter also stars Lisa Joyce.

"Red Light Winter follows two men and a woman in very foreign territory. College friends Davis (Wilmes) and Matt (Denham) spend a wild, unforgettable evening in Amsterdam's Red Light District with a beautiful young prostitute, Christina (Joyce). They find that their lives have changed forever when their bizarre love triangle plays out in unexpected ways a year later in the East Village," according to press notes.

The production features set design by Todd Rosenthal, costume design by Michelle Tesdall, lighting design by Keith Parham and sound design by Eric Shim. The play is produced by Scott Rudin/Paramount Pictures, Robyn Goodman and Stuart Thompson. Red Light Winter, it should be noted, contains nudity and explicit sexual situations.

The Barrow Street Theatre is located at 27 Barrow Street, at the corner of Seventh Avenue South. Tickets ($65) are available through Telecharge at 212: 239-6200, or www.telecharge.com.
