A Play to Benefit the Epilepsy Foundation

Posted on January 7, 2011 at 11:02 AM

Out of Pocket Productions, a local theatre company founded by Irondequoit actress Stephanie Siuda, is putting on the play Separation which will run on Geva Theatre Center’s Nextstage from January 27th to February 6th.

A portion of the proceeds from this production will benefit the programs and services of the Epilepsy Foundation. Tickets can be purchased on Geva Theatre's website.

 

Separation

Middle-aged and overweight British playwright Joe Green hasn't been able to write since the premiere of his play about a woman faced with a lifetime in a wheelchair. A young American actress who is suffering the debilitating effects of the illness that plagues the character in Joe's play wishes to procure the rights to perform in it in New York. Over a series of transatlantic phone calls, what starts out as an artistic collaboration develops into something more —an unlikely romance that must overcome not only geographical distance but the treacherous terrain of two battered hearts.
