1001
West Coast Premiere by Jason Grote
directed by Michael Michetti
Previews begin May 1,
runs May 10 - June 8, 2008
Wandering through a deserted New York City subway tunnel in a hallucinogenic daze, urbanite Alan emerges from the dark to encounter a one-eyed Middle-Eastern merchant in ancient Baghdad… So goes this hilarious and heartbreaking retelling of The Tales of the Thousand and One Nights which spins stories of love, sex, religion and war – some things never go out of style.
