"Theatre on the edge, martinis on the side"
FEBRUARY 2007
On Saturday, February 3, 2007 at 2:30PM at the Brewery Art Colony!
(618D Moulton Ave, Los Angeles, CA – See below for helpful directions.)
The Yale Cabaret Hollywood and Yale Connection Present:
The Yale Cabaret Hollywood presents a reading of the prize-winning play “Flowering Spurge” by Frances Huxley. "Flowering Spurge" is directed by Asaad Kelada and produced by Walt Klappert.
“Flowering Spurge” is a comedy that opens with a dip, then it zigs, zags, then it takes off with a turn! A scientist loses one woman only to gain two back – or is it three? Quite a phenomenon, since he is over sixty!
Call 310-499-4104 or email info@YaleCabaretHollywood.com for reservations.
$10 requested donation (includes hor d'erves and refreshments).
Audience members are invited to visit other galleries at The Brewery as well. The Brewery Art Colony is the world's largest live/work art colony with 500 resident artists. The play reading is a highlight of the "February 3 First Saturday Show" at Topanga Canyon Gallery at The Brewery.

The Yale Cabaret Hollywood and Yale Connection Present:
“An Enigma Afloat!”
Paavo Hall’s “Marduk” is a post-modern battle of wills that is as hilarious as it is thoughtful. Set aboard a U.S. warship patrolling the Horn of Africa, "Marduk" pits contemporary geopolitics against an ancient Babylonian fertility god. A Senator tries to riddle out why her sailor son insists the god speaks through him... while the Captain struggles to rein in a stowaway nymphomaniac cheerleader eager to entertain the Egyptian troops onboard. And just what is that meat they're serving in the mess..?
Yale Cabaret Hollywood presents a reading of Paavo Hall’s play “Marduk” at the Topanga Canyon Gallery at the Brewery, 618D Moulton Ave, Los Angeles, Saturday, Dec 2 at 2:30. $5 requested donation. "Marduk" is directed by Laura Stribling and presented in conjunction with The Yale Connection.
