[Capdist-announce] Bridge Street Theatre Presents the U.S. Premiere of SEXUAL MISCONDUCT OF THE MIDDLE CLASSES

[Steven Patterson]

“And a dim image came to him. It was of a girl in a red coat…”

Rehearsals are currently under way in Catskill for the second play in
Bridge Street Theatre’s  2022 Fall Mainstage Season. The U.S. premiere of
Hannah Moscovitch’s award-winning “Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes”
will be presented on the theatre’s “Priscilla” Mainstage for a two-weekend
run from October 13 - 23.

After his third marriage falls apart, Jon, a star professor and an
acclaimed novelist, is disturbed to find himself becoming attracted to one
of his students. Nineteen-year-old Annie is a big fan of his work and also
happens to live just down the street from him. As their mutual admiration
grows and the sexual tension escalates, the archetypal student-teacher
romance gets turned on its head in this compelling, edge-of-your-seat new
play, winner of the 2021 Canadian Governor General’s Literary Award for
English-Language Drama.

Making their Bridge Street Theatre debuts will be director Margo Whitcomb
and, in the role of Annie, actor Abby Burris. Returning in the role of Jon
will be Christopher Patrick Mullen, whom BST audiences have seen previously
as Chip in Fat Knight Theatre’s production of “CHIPANDGUS” and as Jamie
Tyrone in BST’s critically-acclaimed production of Eugene O’Neill’s “Long
Day’s Journey Into Night”.

“Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes” will be performed Thursdays –
Saturday evenings at 7:30pm and Sundays at 2:00pm from October 13 – 23, and
advance tickets can be purchased at bridgest.org/.Tickets can also be
purchased at the door (subject to availability) one half hour prior to each
performance. The play will be presented in the theatre’s intimate 84-seat
“Priscilla” Mainstage, located at 44 West Bridge Street in the Village of
Catskill.

If you love plays that genuinely make you think and feel, performances that
lodge in your mind and heart, and productions that you’ll be discussing for
weeks, months, even years after the curtain falls, you won’t want to miss
“Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes” or any of the other extraordinary
experiences in store for you at this four-time winner of “Best
Theatre/Performance Space” at the annual Best of Greene County Awards. For
