Borg, Dutcher, Whitney et al. Set for Benefit Reading of WEST STREET GANG, 1/29

Eric C. Bailey, Alex Bond, Christopher Borg, Ron Bopst, J.Stephen Brantley, Marc Castle, Johnathan Cedano, Desmond Dutcher, Rick Hinkson, Oliver Houser, Robert Locke, Nick Mathews, Jim Nugent, Aaron Tone, Chris Weikel, and Elizabeth Whitney are set for a pay-what-you-can benefit reading of Doric Wilson's THE WEST STREET GANG at ART/NY. The reading will take place on Saturday, January 29, at 7pm. Mark Finley will direct.

WEST STREET GANG tells the story of the patrons of a shabby waterfront gay club who are forced to band together to defend themselves against a variety of fag bashers -- from street punks to political opportunists to media raptors -- and then Anita Bryant walks through the door. The political satire was produced in 1977 as environmental theater at the Spike Bar.

The evening will benefit TOSOS (The Other Side of Silence), which is celebrating the start of its 10th season after its revival in 2002.

Reservations are strongly suggested. E-mail tosos@nyc.rr.com or call 212-563-2218.
