[John Hickman]

*****"ROSES IN DECEMBER" NOVEMBER 2 ***

***     AT SCHENECTADY CIVIC PLAYHOUSE *

SCHENECTADY -- */Roses in December/, *by Victor Cahn, will be presented 
as a free staged reading Sunday, November 2, at 2:30 p.m. at the 
Schenectady Civic Playhouse, 12 So. Church Street, in Schenectady 
historic Stockade district.One performance only, it is part of a series 
celebrating the Playhouse's 87thseason.

In this two-character play of letters, which featuresauthor Victor Cahn 
andDevra Cohen-Tigor,ayoung official in a college alumni office invites 
a celebrated but reclusive author to the thirty-fifth reunion of his 
class. When he declines, she charmingly prods him, and thereby begins a 
witty and revelatory correspondence that becomes part mystery, part 
memory, and part romance.

"Written beautifully as a series of letters, this warm and satisfying 
work follows in the footsteps of A.R. Gurney's /Love Letters/ and 
deserves to become just as enduringly popular... Cahn serves up 
something of a bona fide thriller along with the genuinely wise 
psychological insights that lie at the heart of /Roses in December/, 
keeping us riveted until the final word has been read." - /NYTheatre.com/

Mr. Cahn is Professor of English at Skidmore College, Saratoga, where he 
teaches courses in Shakespeare, modern drama, and the history of drama.
