The White Plains Performing Arts Center play reading series of classic, TONY honored Best Plays continues with Lillian Hellman's TOYS IN THE ATTIC on Friday, May 1 at 7:30 pm. Tickets are $10 each. The Nakd Stage Play Reading Series features actors with scripts in hand, no sets, costumes or props. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE WORDS.
Set in New Orleans following the Great Depression, the play focuses on the Berniers sisters, two middle-aged spinsters who have sacrificed their own ambitions to look after their ne'er-do-well younger brother Julian, whose grandiose dreams repeatedly lead to financial disasters. When he unexpectedly returns home accompanied by his emotionally unstable, childlike young bride Lily, her aloof, aristocratic mother Albertine, and an unexplained large sum of money, Carrie and Anna suddenly find that the position of power they have always held has become unbalanced, leaving their lives in chaos.
The cast includes
Saum Eskandani, Nashard Gales,
Kathleen Huber, Catherine Nastasi, Rebecca
Leigh Silverman, Tiffany Stoker, and Matthew Walters-Bowens. This staged reading of
Lillian Hellman's TOYS IN THE ATTIC is directed by Anjanette Morton.
