From Primary Stages, a new drama about dissent and protest in the 60's and today.
Closing Performance at Primary Stages: April 26, 2008
From the theatre:
After productions of Sabina and Bovver Boy's, Willy Holtzman returns to Primary Stages with Something You Did, the story of a notorious Sixties radical that has served nearly 30 years in prison for her part in the accidental killing of an African-American police officer during an explosive war protest. Now she is eligible for parole in a post 9/11 world where bombing is terrorism and dissent, treason. How much can she be faulted for having a conscience? Is she guilty of bringing the war home? A powerfully topical and provocative drama, Something You Did examines the responsibility of citizens for the actions of their government.
Through 4/26.
What's Primary Stages?:
One of the better-established Off-Broadway theatres in midtown, Primary Stages has mostly made the development of new plays its artisitc priority, and over the years, many of the biggest names in the business have tried out their new stuff on its modest stages. After a long residence just west of the theatre district, it recently decamped to the very modern and comfortable 59E59 on East 59th. Expect a competent staging which focuses on the words.
