[Capdist-announce] press release/ Town Players/ Aug. 30

[Laura G]

On Sunday, August 30 at 2pm, Town Players of Pittsfield will present two readings at the Whitney Center for the Arts, 42 Wendell Avenue in Pittsfield.

The first will be a romantic comedy, "Thread Count" written by Lisa Soland.  What could possibly instigate a love match between a NYC luxury linen sales clerk and a practical, down-to -earth woman from North Dakota? Counting threads on a display bed in Macy's department store. Dot's path crosses Fergus's, weaving their lives together as tightly as the thread count on the linen he sells. When Macy's closes with the two of them  inside, they are left to ponder the possibilities laid before them.

The second will be a story written and read by Richard Matturro from his collection "Porch of the Maidens".  "Electra" is about a young woman who, after the death of her beloved father, seeks the destruction of her mother.

"Thread Count" is being directed by Melanie Rivers and the cast includes Laura Gardner, Tom Gardner and Matt Barbas.

Admission is $5.00.
