JDTLab: FREE Staged Reading - THE PERSONALS

This winter, Guild Hall debuts the John Drew Theater Lab (JDTLab), a workshop devoted to fostering East End performing artists and cultivating audiences for their work. The mission of JDTLab is to support actively-engaged performing artists by providing the helpful resources of the John Drew Theater to further them along on the journey of their creative process. The JDTLab programs will be presented free of charge to the public at 7:30pm on select Tuesdays through May. March 4 JDTLab presents a FREE Staged Reading of THE PERSONALS by Brian Sutow. Directed by Isaac Klein. Featuring Josh Gladstone, Kate Mueth, and Trevor Vaughn. After surviving a tragedy, estranged husband and wife Don and Janna go on a series of “blind dates” with each other to try to save their marriage. Based on the critically acclaimed film “Blind Date” by Theo Van Gogh and its subsequent American remake by Stanley Tucci, The Personal(s) is the third incarnation of a story that is often compared to the classic Whose Afraid of Virginia Woolf. At turns both heartbreaking and hilarious, The Personal(s) is a moving inquiry into humor, compassion and our ability to endure.
