SUMMARY:A ColLab Staged Reading: The Laundry Play by Sarah Groustra
DESCRIPTION:Off The Lane’s ColLab program presents a new community event series\, developed to present staged readings of new\, independent theatre with *unexpected* twists: The ColLab Staged Reading Series! \n\n\n\nThe ColLab Staged Reading Series launch on February 10th will present Sarah Groustra’s THE LAUNDRY PLAY\, directed by Rachel Sabo-Hedges. Join us this Valentine’s Week for a play about romantic reconnection and reconciliation. \n\n\n\nTHE LAUNDRY PLAY summary: “David is a museum curator whose panic attacks have gone untreated for years. When he considers taking a job that will move him halfway across the country\, this comes as a shock to his girlfriend\, Eliza. Told largely through both characters’ conversations with a therapist\, The Laundry Play paints a portrait of a relationship on the verge of either connection or collapse\, and the emotional landscape of intimacy with clinical anxiety.” \n\n\n\nAlcoholic/Non-Alcoholic drinks will be available for purchase at the event! All proceeds will go towards supporting future OTL artists/productions. \n\n\n\nThe event will take place at the OTL performance loft in Chelsea\, NYC – \n\n\n\nAddress: Meaux Space\, 305 7th Ave Fl 17\, New York\, NY 10001 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMEET THE COMPANY \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSarah Groustra (she/her) is a Brooklyn-based\, Massachusetts-born playwright and theatermaker.
