The Drama of Public Relations
Joe (played by Andrea Modica, below right) is a stressed out VP at a New York PR agency. Melanie (played by Ella Jane New, left) is a stressed out marketing exec launching a new cruise liner. A chance encounter in the waiting room a therapist’s office leads to impromptu venting, a connection and a negotiation - proving that in New York your life can radically change in less than 10 minutes.
Joe and Melanie are working out their agita on stage for 8 performances, starting next Thursday, December 11, at H-B Playwright’s Theatre, 124 Bank Street, NYC, next to H-B Studios. Directions here.

The HB Studios “waiting room series” is really great! Yours is hilarious, Mark! Can’t wait to see it develop into a full-length production!

I saw the plays and they were GREAT. A good range of actors and subject matter. It was done well. I brought visitors from Australia. There was an actor Gary Corbin who played a disabled actor in a casting office and was offstage in a second play. He was FANTASTIC! Blew all three of us away. There were many other good performers as well.
