The Idealist: A New Play at the Times Center February 23rd

I am free-lancing on an exciting new project called The Idealist.  It's a play which has been in the making for over a decade and is now receiving a staged reading at the Times Center in New York City on Wednesday, February 23, at 8:00 pm. The really wonderful thing about this event is that if you can't attend in person, you can watch it online! It will be streamed live on the night of the event, and will be available for six days afterward.  You can click this link and purchase tickets to attend in-person and this link for purchasing a pass to watch online.  And don't forget to visit the show's official website here.  The play is the true story of the struggle to dramatize The Diary of Anne Frank, and one man's fight for an authentic adaptation that was not cleansed of Jewish content.  I am personally fascinated by the play for its' insight into the xenophobia of 1950's America and the political climate of the time. I hope all of you can attend in-person or watch the live performance online, the first reading to be broadcast worldwide in such a manner. Become a part of history!
