Sam Shepard's FOOL FOR LOVE Opens In NYC This Week
A Wyoming production of Sam Shepard's Fool for Love comes to New York City for a six-week run, October 17 to December 1. Originally debuted in Jackson Hole under the direction of Obie Award-winning artist Bob Berky, this production of Fool for Love is a quintessential, Western drama that illuminates the dissolution of the American dream. Having departed the wide-open skies and vastness of the Wyoming landscape, the group of actors transitioned to NYC this past September, as the crew transformed an empty Chelsea storefront into a 50-seat theater, replete with a gallery that will house a rotating collection of Western wares, paintings, poetry, dance and artists talks.
