Thursday, July 10th, 2008

Logan attended the opening night of the Off-Broadway play, The Marriage of Bette and Boo this evening. There’s a handful of images from the event in the gallery right now, but I will definitely be adding more as I find them.

Geometry On Fire Reading

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

From Playbill:

The New York Stage and Film Company will present a one-night-only reading of Stephen Belber’s Geometry of Fire March 10.

Directed by Lucie Tiberghien, the reading will be presented at the Roundabout Theatre Company’s Black Box Theatre. The cast will feature Reed Birney, Donnie Keshawarz, Logan Marshall-Green and Jennifer Mudge.

“One man is a Marine reservist sniper just back from Iraq,” according to Geometry press notes. “The other is a Saudi American looking for the cause of his father’s death. When their paths cross, they collide — and both men grapple with their past and their future. This timely play is an intimate, humorous exploration of the complications of war and the effects on those involved.”

Geometry of Fire made its world premiere as part of The New York Stage and Film Company’s 2007 Powerhouse Season. The upcoming reading will feature Belber’s revision of Geometry based on that production, which co-starred Mia Barron, Reed Birney, Piter Marek and Logan Marshall-Green.

The evening will begin at 6:30 PM with a reception followed by the 7 PM reading.

Roundabout Theatre Company’s Black Box Theatre is located at the Harold & Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre, 111 West 46th Street in New York. For reservations e-mail efox@newyorkstageandfilm.org.
