6th Street Playhouse Presents THE FINAL SCENE, 3/4-27

It's the 1980s and the daytime television soap opera set of "The Promising Dawn" is turned upside down as leading lady Gretchen Manning works to avoid the impending doom writers have created for her character.
 
The daytime soap's ratings aren't as high as they once were and executives have determined it's time for a change. Featuring a cast of quirky characters, the comedy plays out as the cast and crew of "The Promising Dawn" confront the final scene. 
 
The inspiration for the new stage comedy "The Final Scene" comes directly from playwright Gene Abravaya's personal experience working during the late 1970s on the New York City television set of a popular daytime soap opera.
