Waffles Anyone?

Last November, Michael I. Walker's play LETTER FROM ALGERIA was the breakout hit of our From the Ground UP reading series. Less than 12 months later, we are set to open a production of the play with a fabulous cast -- Rufus Collins, Amanda Jane Cooper, Patrick Murney & JD Taylor -- and creative team (director Adam Fitzgerald, set and lighting designer Travis McHale and costume designer Amanda Jenks).

We are thrilled to share this exciting new play with you, but why all this discussion of waffles when the play is called LETTER FROM ALGERIA? Well, the play begins in a dorm room in Brussels, Belgium. Three ex-pat American students meet and the rest is history.

In keeping with the Belgian theme, we're offering a few surround events -- fun activities, food and drink -- to round out the theater-going experience. On Halloween, Sunday, October 31st, we're offering Belgian brunch items at intermission. On November 2nd and 10th, our friends at 36 West Bar and Grill, right next door to our theatre, is offering pre-show and post-show, respectively, deals on Belgian beers. Look for the coupon in the program.

Join us as we transport you to Belgium, a country known for its waffles, fries and fantastic female tennis players (Justine Henin and Kim Clijsters).

We look forward to sharing LETTER FROM ALGERIA with you over the next few weeks.
