Red Light Winter Reaches 100th Off-Bway Performance

Red Light Winter, a new play written and directed by Adam Rapp, marked its 100th performance Off-Broadway at the Barrow Street Theatre on Saturday, May 6th. Red Light Winter began performances on January 20, 2006 and opened on February 9, 2006.

The production, which played a sold-out extended run at Chicago's acclaimed Steppenwolf Theatre Company last summer features the original Steppenwolf cast: Christopher Denham, Lisa Joyce and Gary Wilmes.

"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.
