Now or Later

[NoHo Arts District, CA] – Now or Later, written by Christopher Shinn and directed by Ann Bronston will play four performances only at the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2023. 

It’s the night of the US presidential election and success is imminent for the Democratic Party. All is well until a revelation plunges the campaign into an international crisis. Woven within the brittle fabric of a political family, the play exposes uncomfortable truths about politics, religion, bigotry, and freedom of expression. 

Now or Later received its world premiere at the Royal Court Theatre in September 2008 starring Academy Award and Tony Award-winner Eddie Redmayne. 

The Cast:

Now or Later will feature (in alphabetical order) Cherish Monique Duke, Brendan Farrell, Suzanne Ford, Samuel Garnett, George Kappaz, and Jack McKeever. 

The Team:

The scenic design is by Barbara Kallir, graphic design is by Carra Yoder, and assistant director is Raquel Berney Needleman.
