“News to a Muse” – Life Experience on Stage
The Dragon Plays update!
On Sunday, Feb 12th, LoNyLa London will broadcast a reading of NEWS TO A MUSE by Richard Chang and directed by Wilson Milam. Set in New York City during the financial meltdown, the play satirizes various newsroom personalities. Chang’s experience as a journalist with Reuters surfaces in comedic, rapid-fire exchanges between frenetic reporters and demanding editors. A poetic tour de force!
Cast: David Lee-Jones, Kristian Hart, Meghan Treadway, Zara Tempest-Walters, Charlie Carter, Zina Badran, Thomas Rushforth, Katherine Templar, Julian Hoult, Elizabeth Menabney, Melissa Ulloa, Andrew Futaishi, Emma Richardson, Kate Davies.
Five journalists are trapped in a short-staffed newsroom during a freak storm and an epic financial crisis that threatens to destroy the world. A suspected terrorist attack drives the staff to seek safety in the ladies restroom — where their individual closets are exposed and the truth is bared. Set against the News of the World scandal, the farce reveals how we comply with the media to glamorize stress at the expense of sanity.
Date/time: Sunday, Feb 12th – 9PM HKT/SGT, 1PM GMT, 8AM EST, 5AM PST
Location: The Rag Factory, 16-18 Heneage St., London E1 5LJ
