The Details:
Presents a Free Reading of
THE WOODPECKER
by Brett Williams
Directed by Michole Biancosino
Today is Jimmy's special day. His Mom is proud, his Dad is jealous and Jimmy has discovered that he has a special bond with animals. Tomorrow he leaves for the war and he is thankful.
From the sleepy town of Arkadephia to an all too familiar interrogation room in a desert war zone, Jimmy navigates the trappings of family, religion, patriotism and justice.
With: Company Members Michael John Casey (Clearing in the Woods and Ubu Roi) and Grady Weatherford (The Illusion, The Beard of Avon, et.al.) are joined by Joachim Boyle and Rorschach Alum Frank Britton (After the Flood and Accidental Death of an Anarchist)

Grady sent me this further piece of information. Apprently the playwright was supposed to be joining them for the reading on Monday but has to give the reading a pass. He has been committed to a mental institution until Tuesday. And while we all wish him the best, you have to admit that a play written by a guy who has been committed does have a certain lurid curiosity factor built in. Come on out people it is free and I for one know when Michole and Grady put their heads together you know you are in for a ride. And it's free!
