* * Other Upcoming Events: CAUSE CÉLÈBRE— LIVING FOR DESIGN Honoree: Friends of Arts
& Design (FAD) I've always loved the title of
Noel Coward's play, "Design For
Living," and I thought the reverse of it, "Living For Design” would be a perfect match for a Cause Célèbre
program we are presenting on May 11th. The honoree is FRIENDS OF The title, "Living For Design," seems
to be the right fit for a number of reasons. One of the most important
is that it speaks to a question that many young people begin to ask as they
mature--what is it that we live for? The other meaning of
"living," as in how one makes a living, is another great concern
that faces young people as they move through the different phases of their
lives. Living For Design
will be held at The Players (16 Gramercy Park South). Call 646-366-9340 for reservations. Seating is limited. “Of Fathers and
Sons” by Mel Brooks, directed by Bob Dishy Starring: Bob Dishy, Judy Graubart and Adam Green Another hilarious one-act about a married couple who are petty thieves by profession. Their great disappointment is that their son is a straight-A student who is studying to be a violinist. If only he could turn to crime! "The Designers" written and directed by Susan
Charlotte Starring: Joan Copeland and Marian Seldes A new one-act about two
successful designers, one is a fashion designer, the other is an
interior designer. The former designs clothes for large women, making them
appear smaller than they are. The latter is well known for making small
spaces appear larger than they are. Both women are dealing with aging
and the fact that their larger than life worlds have become increasingly
smaller. The Dining Room (Excerpts) by A.R.
Gurney, directed by Christopher Hart and Starring: Reed
Birney, Adam Green, Carolyn McCormick, Pippa Pearthree and Marian Seldes One vignette will be presented from the highly successful play in which a very Waspy aunt is being interviewed by her nephew for a term paper. She is extremely proud of her heritage and is thrilled to share it with her nephew, only to discover that he does not share her pride! Last updated: Monday, May 18, 2009 * * * * * * Past Events:
