Tuesday July 7, 2009: 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm -- Downtown Library: Multi-Purpose Room

This special theatrical event offers an exciting chance to see a new Purple Rose production at its infancy. Artistic Director Guy Sanville will direct a full cast of Purple Rose performers in a reading of Quiet City Boston- a new dark comedy by Michael Brian Ogden that the Theater is considering for a fully staged production during the 2010-2011 season. View the reading, then stay and offer your opinions on this new work! Purple Rose wants to know what YOU have to say about this play. Do you like it? Should they perform it in the future? What needs to be tweaked?

Quiet City Boston, a dark comedy for mature audiences (which contains some adult language and violence), asks the question: Can a Mafia hit man walk away from “the life” when his partner in crime stands in the way?
