Jaradoa Theater is presenting "I'll Be Damned," a new musical by
Rob Broadhurst and
Brent Black, beginning July 1st through July 18th at the Dimson Theatre at The Vineyard, 108 East 15th Street (between Union
Square East & Irving Place). "I'll Be Damned" is directed by

"I'll Be Damned" is the story of a friendless, comic book-loving homeschooler named Louis who receives a seemingly irresistible offer from Satan. Louis' mother is a little late in coming to terms with her son growing up, God seems lost in his vision of a perfect world, and Louis is discovering himself as he attempts to find just one true friend. This fresh new musical comedy begs the universal question: "Is there a way to make people like you without having to sell your soul to the devil?"
The playing schedule for the limited engagement of "I'll Be Damned" will be Tuesday at 7pm, Wednesday through Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 2 & 8pm, and Sunday at 3pm. Tickets are $18 and are available through www.SmartTix.com (212) 868-4444. For more information, visit www.JaradoaTheater.org.
