Here’s a chance to catch one of my favorite plays by one of my favorite playwrights while scratching your desi sense of economy at the same time. A free staged reading of Chaos Theory by Anuvab Pal is taking place Mon 1/17 and Tue 1/18 in Manhattan.
Chaos Theory is an intensely romantic, delayed-gratification talkie for people who dig wordplay — you Before Sunset, Raincoat, Tumhari Amrita, Woody Allen fans. Y’all know who you are, you silver-tongued scoundrels.
The reading is being put on by Pulse Ensemble Theatre; Rajesh Bose, Sanjiv Jhaveri and Rita Wolf (My Beautiful Laundrette, Homebody / Kabul) star, Alexa Kelly directs.
Chaos Theory, 1/17-1/18, 7 PM, at the American Place Theatre, 520 8th Ave. (36th/37th), 22nd floor, 212.695.1596; free admission
Aaack! You’re posting too many cool things to see/do in NYC for this delayed-gratification talkie-junkie. I guess I’ll have to wait for your review of the performance to show up on SM. =)
Here, here, Amelie-Freak… I immediately got a pang of regret for moving so far away from Manhattan.
Pretty cool, eh… where else can you catch edgy desi plays, Indian art films and advance screenings of Sundance winners in the same city?
Here’s an excerpt from Chaos Theory.
