The Milk Can Theatre Company presents... "RUNNING" a new play by Sharon E. Cooper directed by Pat Diamond

Three gay men, a widow, and a funeral. Running is a full-length drama/comedy that asks the question--can we escape our past? What happens when we have to confront the lies we tell? This is a play about coming out, not just about our sexuality, but about the fact that each of us must face the truth about ourselves. It's about living honestly and being straightforward.

Run Towards Your Life, Not Away From It.
May 2-17, 2008 (Wed-Sun)
The Michael Weller Theatre
311 West 43rd St., 6th floor (btwn 8th and 9th Ave.)
