The Babel Theatre Project presents the world premiere of, You May Go Now, a new play by 2006 Innovative Theatre Award-Winning playwright Bekah Brunstetter, directed by Geordie Broadwater, which opened September 9 running through September 29 at the 45th Street Theatre.

"Dottie has trained Betty to be the perfect 1950s housewife; to cook the perfect pot roast, to bake a gorgeous seven-layer cake, to remove any stain. And tonight, Betty's 18th birthday, it is time for Betty to go out into the world. Only Dottie has failed to mention that the year is 2007, that the world is a vast and complex place, and that there is reason she cannot abide being called 'Mother.' Ghosts from the past haunt the women and shatter their idyllic, if odd, existence. When a mysterious traveler is stranded at their home, he brings a revelation that forces Betty to choose between the love of her 'mother' and her freedom and sanity," describe press notes.

The cast includes: Justin Blanchard, Ginger Eckert, Melinda Helfrich and Ben Vershbow.  The creative team includes: Tristan Jeffers, Jason Bishop, Anthony Gabriele and Kathryn Ann Pierroz. 

Performances through September 29 are Wednesdays through Saturdays at 8PM at Upstairs at the 45th Street Theatre, 354 West 45th Street.  Tickets are $18 and they are available at www.theatermania.com or 212-352-3101. Running time is 90 Minutes. For more info visit www.babeltheatreproject.org
