JRM to appear in TheatreEast's 5 x 5 Drama Series

Last year, JRM's play IN THE BASEMENT was featured as a part of TheatreEast's 5 x 5 drama series. This year, she will be featured as an actor in the play DON'T YOU FORGET ABOUT ME by Thomas J. Misuraca along side Jeff Gorcyca and directed by Christa Kimlicko Jones.

The 5X5 Drama Series brings performances beyond the footlights and into non-traditional spaces like breweries, rooftops, apartments, and more in a unique immersive audience experience. Each of the 5 performances will consist of 5 short plays, performed by 5 casts, throughout all 5 boroughs. Fulfilling one of TheatreEast's core beliefs of making theatre accessible to all, 5X5 brings the stage directly to the people. And best of all, tickets are available on a suggested donation basis.

 Admission is donation only but seating is incredibly limited.
