A reminder: Project Shaw, which puts on concert-style semi-staged readings of the plays of George Bernard Shaw each month, is performing The Devil’s Disciple tonight. The production will be directed by David Staller, and I’m the narrator. This is, as I mentioned last week, the first time in thirty-five years that I’ve appeared on stage in a theatrical performance, so come out and cheer me on–or do the other thing, if you feel so inclined!
The show is at Symphony Space, 95th and Broadway, and starts at seven p.m. To order tickets or for more information, go here.
