[NoHo Arts District, CA] – Theatre 68 presents the irreverent dramedy BROOKLYN’S WAY…, a world premiere production by critically acclaimed playwright Sam Henry Kass, directed by Ronnie Marmo and running September 7 – October 13, 2024.
About BROOKLYN’S WAY…
They met on a studio lot. He’s a quirky veteran writer, emotionally fractured by his belief that he has “sold out” creatively. She’s a young and fierce writer’s assistant, intrigued by his talent, and fearful of his inability to avoid self-destructing. Two people now aligned forever, yet separated by life and the circumstances they both face. One needing desperately to confront his past, the other trying to define her future. BROOKLYN’S WAY… an impossible choice with life-long regrets and repercussions.
