About this event

Join us for a staged reading and talkback exploring the ethical issues raised by the play. Pre-show reception 30 minutes before each showtime!

In this American classic by Sam Shepard, Austin is working on a script he has sold to producer Saul Kimmel, when his brother Lee, a demented petty thief, drops in. Lee pitches his own idea for a movie to Kimmel, who then wants Austin to junk his modern love story and write Lee’s trashy Western tale.

Starring Todd Butera, Chase Naylor, Mark Hofmaier, and Pat Debrovner

Directed by David Adam Gill
