Workhouse Publicity to produce benefit with Griffin Dunne at Lotus to aid Disaster Psychiatry Outreach programs in NYC!

Griffin Dunne heads an All-Star cast for Disaster benefit (NYC)

NEW YORK- Workhouse Publicity, Voula Duval and Diane Paragas cordially invite you to the debut of New York, an unflinching theatrical reflection that molds feelings, alienation and attempts to cope with life during wartime after the tragic events of September 11th. New York is highlighted with references ripped right from today's headlines centered around a series of non-stop monologues and scenes between a psychiatrist and her patients. Filled with wild, sometimes startling humor, everyone from stockbrokers, fireman, iron workers, Newscasters, and caterers reveal themselves. Musical interludes performed by Sasha Lazard and turntable diva Rebecca Weinberg.

One night only! At Lotus located at 409 West 14th Street on Wednesday, April 10th, 2002 doors open at 7pm, sit-down dinner at 8pm, show starts at 9:30pm. Written by David Rimmer (Author of the Pulizter-finalist comedy Album), Griffin Dunne heads an all-star cast in an evening that benefits the Disaster Psychiatry Outreach, PC, a charitable organization devoted to the provision of voluntary psychiatric services to individuals affected by disasters. Founded in 1998 in response to the crash of Swissair Flight 111, DPO is a unique organization devoted to providing care, promoting education, outreach and research services that supports their clinical mission. Working in collaboration with the American Red Cross, DPO has grown into an organization that remains available 24 Hours a day to assist those agencies in the event of disasters that may take place within the greater New York area.
