FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Dafina McMillan January 31, 2014 [email protected] 212-609-5955 New from TCG Books: The Hallway Trilogy by Adam Rapp NEW YORK, NY – Theatre Communications Group (TCG) is pleased to announce the publication of The Hallway Trilogy by Adam Rapp, the author of the Pulitzer Prize-finalist, Red Light Winter. This harrowing series weaving tales of love, torment and redemption received its world premiere at New York City’s Rattlestick Playwrights Theater in February 2011. “To watch The Hallway Trilogy by Adam Rapp is to enter an alternate universe…a carnival of the desperate, the grotesque, the outrageous.” — New York Times Playwright provocateur Adam Rapp weaves tales of love, torment and redemption in The Hallway Trilogy, a dark and compelling exploration of what binds people together and drives them apart. Spanning 100 years in a Lower East Side tenement hallway, The Hallway Trilogy of connected plays begins in 1953 with Rose, in which a young, troubled actress searches for affirmation from the one person who has shown her a bit of kindness – the great playwright Eugene O’Neill. Fifty years later in Paraffin, an unhappily married couple is thrown together with a paralyzed war veteran, a bungling super and other lost souls searching to connect during the 2003 blackout. Nursing dramatizes a horrifying future: In 2053, the hallway is now a museum in which the financially desperate are injected with obsolete diseases for the amusement of a public that doesn’t know what it means to suffer, or to love. “I knew in a single sentence that Adam was a writer the world was going to listen to for as long as he felt like writing…Adam writes like nobody else, his fierce poetic power as inescapable as the doom that waits for his characters. -
Almost in Love
ALMOST IN LOVE a love story in two takes Cast Alex Karpovsky – Sasha Gary Wilmes – Kyle Marjan Neshat – Mia Alan Cumming – Hayden Adam Rapp – Lee Katherine Waterston – Lulu Crew Sam Neave – Writer/Director Daniel McKeown – Camera Michaela McKee – Producer DL Glickman - Producer The glance reveals what the gaze obscures Ralph Waldo Emerson Synopsis A love story shot in two single, continuous 40 minute takes set eighteen months apart: the first over a sunset, the second over a sunrise. Sasha has been in love with Mia for years. His best friend, Kyle, recently started dating Mia until it all fell apart. None of them have spoken for over a month when Sasha hosts a barbecue on his Staten Island terrace - but that’s all about to change. Over the course of the evening in New York and a drunken dawn in the Hamptons the three of them show just how far they will go for love, for themselves and for each other. The story of a love triangle in two uninterrupted halves, Almost in Love mixes a naturalistic style with an ambitious new form to create a unique experience. A film that deals with loyalty, friendship and love - and whether a perfect moment can save us from ourselves. It may seem perverse for a man who makes his living as an editor to try to make a film essentially without edits but Almost in Love is my attempt to combine the natural intimacy and improvisatory style that I love with a more rigorous formal aesthetic. I wanted to see if we could perform this technical sleight-of-hand without sacrificing the emphasis that I tend to place on the actors. -

However, all his encounters with the opposite sex inevitably go afoul, creating more awkward experiences than he can cope with. As the rejections mount, Kevin’s futile search for happiness and love becomes overwhelmingly turbulent, forcing him to take desperate measures. Shot in a variety of NYC locales, from Hell’s Kitchen to Greenpoint, Forgetting the Girl is a gritty vision of the city and its denizens. The tightly-woven drama blends recollections with reality to craft an intense character study of the psychologically-scarred protagonist. As beautiful as it is dark, the tense narrative slowly boils under the surface until it unleashes an unsettling climax that will not be easily forgotten.
