- THREE IRISH WIDOWS VS. THE REST OF THE WORLD
- WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY ED MALONE, DIRECTED BY ROB WELSH
The 3 Irish Widows versus The Rest of the World is a darkly comic look at what it takes to be an Irish Catholic feminist in the modern world.
Three working class 65-year-old Irish women-- Maura, Margaret and Breda--journey throughout Europe, New York City, and all over the world in search of a fulfillment that always eluded them in the backwaters of Ireland.
Will they find it, or will they end up disgusted and disillusioned by the Sex and the City generation? "Feminism, me arse!" This story is told with the aid of manic and deranged Irish storyteller Ed Malone, the son of one of the women. The play features over 25 different characters and is based on actual events.
The 3 Irish Widows versus The Rest of the World is surrealist epic Irish storytelling at its very best.
Audience members at the first three performances had this to say about "Three Irish Widows"
'Ed Malone is mesmerizing'
'an invigorating, hilarious, touching evening'
'epic, tremendous, strange, anarchic, so alive! great storytelling!'
'The Three Irish Widows vs. The Rest of the World is breathtakingly beautiful'
"Rob Welsh's direction is amazing and flawless"

- THE FIFTIES GIRL: A SIMPLE STORY
WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY SUSAN LAUBACH, DIRECTED BY GRETCHEN CRYER
- SAT & SUN, MAR 6&7, 13&14, 20& 21 AT 5 PM
Corn-fed girl from the Middle West comes to New York to fulfill her dream of going on the stage - that dream which has defined her short life, undergirded her every decision...oh, wait. It's the 50's. A girl didn't actually make decisions. But she had her dream. This is a simple story about that dream. And about New York in the late 50's when off-off-Broadway was just beginning to blossom.
"Funny and wise, Susan brings a sparkling self-deprecating wit to her solo piece. Her considerable writing skill is matched by her ebullience as an actress. It's a completely engaging coming-of-age adventure with a new twist." Gretchen Cryer
