First Cold Reading for a HOT Summer!
Elmwood’s Cold Reading for a HOT Summer Series kicks off Saturday, July 21st with “Airline Highway,” by Lisa D’Amour
D’Amour’s play takes place in the parking lot of The Hummingbird, a once-glamorous motel on New Orleans’ infamous Airline Highway, a group of friends gathers. A rag-tag collection of strippers, hustlers, and philosophers have come together to celebrate the life of Miss Ruby, an iconic burlesque performer who has requested a funeral before she dies. The party rages through the night as old friends resurface to pay their respects.
The cast is as follows:
Hasan Grey, Kevin Nagle, Alex Francisco, John Anderson, Carol Napier, Stavros Adamides, Jenn Vogel, Steve Taylor, Tiffany M. Card and as Miss Ruby – Maxine Bernstein
The second reading will take place August 4th and we are looking for male actors of color. If available and interested please contact Tiffany Card.
The readings will take place at 11:00 AM in the Tarson Studio and are free of charge. All are welcome to attend.
