TAPE, a new play, will run from Friday, October 17th through Sunday, October 19th at the 78th Street Theatre Lab (236 W 78th Street). The play is written by Stephen Belber and produced by Justin Boccitto and The Group Theatre Too, LLC.

TAPE stars Nicky Romaniello, Alex Maxwell and Cristina Marie. It is directed by Jeff Brelvi.

Jon, an aspiring filmmaker on the verge of hitting it big, hooks up for the weekend with his best friend from high school, Vince, a volunteer fireman who makes his money selling dope. Jon's new film is being shown at a festival in Lansing, Michigan, and Vince has come from Oakland to see it. Over the course of the evening, Vince finally gets Jon to admit that ten years ago he date-raped Amy Randall, a girl whom they both dated in high school, only then to reveal that he's taped their entire conversation. And not only that, he's invited Amy to have dinner with them that night. Beneath its sus-penseful, high-stakes surface, TAPE examines questions of motive, memory, truth and perception.

Performance Dates/Times are Friday, October 17th - 8pm, Saturday, October 18th - 8pm, and Sunday, October 19th - 2pm

Tickets are $20 can be purchased by calling 212-567-1535 or visiting www.tapetheplay.com
