WILLIAM and the TRADESMEN at Ars Nova




Where: Ars Nova - 511 W. 54th Street (at 10th Ave) - NYC
When: Tues Oct 27th, 8pm - ONE NIGHT ONLY!
How much: $10

I am thrilled that Ars Nova will be presenting the latest staging of my one-man show, "WILLIAM and the TRADESMEN," directed by Francesco Campari.

Francesco has insisted I stop calling it a one-man show. "It is not a one-man show. A one-man show is an organ grinder playing Springsteen songs on the street corner. This - is a show about a man. And that man is called William."

I think that pretty much proves I have the greatest director in the world. And the most Italian.

Reasons enough to come see the show - part of Ars Nova's much-lauded ANT Fest (All New Talent Fest) - assembling thirty artists over five weeks to present the best of new original works.

Tickets only $10. Grab them now at: William and the Tradesmen Tix
