Soap Divas in "Laugh Lines" Play Reading

On Saturday, May 10th at 8pm at the Chashama Theatre, some of the best actresses in daytime join forces for a reading of the Penny Bergman play "Laugh Lines."

"Laugh Lines" is a musical comedy for anyone who’s ever had a junior senior moment. For anyone who has uttered the words, 'I’m too young to be this old!' This full-length, one act play follows three lifelong 'New Yawkers' smack in the middle of midlife crisis -- and the men and families that love and support them.

The fast-paced ensemble show speaks directly to the huge generation of Baby Boomers: obsessing over losing their looks, their sexuality, their children, their jobs, their memory and their minds! "Laugh Lines" is not all about the young and skinny, we also celebrate the older and pear-shaped – former activists, groovy grandmas, and fabulous fashionistas. It’s an intergenerational experience, a girl’s night out and a middle-age date play.

Participating in the reading are Kim Zimmer (GUIDING LIGHT), Ilene Kristen (ONE LIFE TO LIVE), Bobbie Eakes (ALL MY CHILDREN), Melissa Claire Egan (ALL MY CHILDREN) and Marj Dusay (GUIDING LIGHT).
