General Admission
Dramatic Readings allow actors and audience members to hone in on the core element of theatre: the text. Reading from the script without sets or staging, dramatic readings allow participants to explore dramatic works that hold special meaning or feature topics that might not fit on the Main Stage.
Cast:
John Coleman as Mark Rothko
Steven Pinnella as Ken
Master abstract expressionist Mark Rothko has just landed the biggest commission in the history of modern art, a series of murals for New York’s famed Four Seasons Restaurant. In the two fascinating years that follow, Rothko works feverishly with his young assistant, Ken, in his studio on the Bowery. But when Ken gains the confidence to challenge him, Rothko faces the agonizing possibility that his crowning achievement could also become his undoing. Raw and provocative, RED is a searing portrait of an artist's ambition and vulnerability as he tries to create a definitive work for an extraordinary setting.
Winner of the 2010 Tony Award® for Best Play.
RED is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC., servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection. (www.dramatists.com)
