Passage Theatre welcomes CBS Sunday Morning Commentator Nancy Giles

Trenton's Passage Theatre has scored a coup in getting CBS Sunday Morning commentator, actress and comedian Nancy Giles back to its stage at the Mill Hill Playhouse (205 E. Front Street in Trenton's Historic Mill Hill district) on Friday and Saturday, March 25 and 26, at 8pm, in Black Comedy: The Wacky Side of (Post) Racism.

But wait, there's more...at 10pm Friday night, Giles will offer up a second round of saucy and savvy humor in her late night show featuring never before seen material to benefit Passage Theatre. A long time board member and founding artist of Passage, Ms. GiLes Wants to give back to supporters of Passage with this special one-time-only event!

In her show, Black Comedy: The Wacky Side of (Post) Racism), Giles, who has made her mark dismantling misconceptions about race, feminism and sexism, takes another look at her 1998 Passage Theatre solo show that the Village Voice called "smart and unforgiving." Her acclaimed work on CBS Sunday Morning has provided the largest audience yet for her unique blend of laugh-out loud humor and common sense wisdom.

Nancy Giles is currently a contributor to the award-winning CBS News' Sunday Morning, voicing her opinions on everything from politics and race to pop culture and the conspiracy of high heels. As an actress, she was in the ensemble cast of ABC-TV's Emmy Award-winning series China Beach, and in the films True Crime, Angie, Big, and Working Girl. Giles has also enjoyed success on the radio with The Jay Thomas Morning Show based in New York City, and based in Philadelphia, co-hosted Giles and Moriarty with CBS News correspondent Erin Moriarty.

All tickets: $20. For reservations, call (609) 392-0766 or visit www.passagetheatre.org.
