Back by popular demand, the revival of James McLure’s comedy Lone Star begins performances Thursday, June 6th at the 13th Street Repertory Theatre for eight performances only: June 6th, June 7th, June 8th, June 13th, June 14th and June 15th at 7:30 pm with matinees on June 9th and June 16th at 3:00 pm. Reprising their roles and joining Matt de Rogatis as Roy are Chris Loupos as Ray and Michael Villastrigo as Cletis. The club muscle is played by Tony Del Bono and John Constantine and The Chalks—an all-female band—are Mary Brienza, Kathryn Markey, Leenya Rideout. (The second week of the run will feature Ms. Rideout as a solo performer in the bar.)
Lone Star transforms the theater into a rowdy Texas bar in the early 1970s, with many surprises. This production, directed by Joe John Battista marks the second NYC revival since Powers Boothe originated the role of Roy on Broadway in 1979. Production design is by Kerielle Sollecito with Lighting by Allison Hoffman. The costume consultant is Wendy Tonken and the production coordinator is Roslyn McKay. Lone Star is presented by Ruth Stage and the 13th Street Repertory Theater.
Tickets are $20. For tickets and further information visit the show’s website at www.lonestarplay.com
