The Irondale Center presents Theater Three Collaborative’s production of “Another Life”, a new play written and directed by Karen Malpede, starring George Bartenieff, and surrounded by A Festival of Conscience, Tues (7 pm) Wed-Sat (7:30 pm) March 8-24, 2012.
Tickets: $15.00 Admission to play and all events. ($10 suggested donation.)

A  roller-coaster ride, surreal and real, through the past ten years, “Another Life” tells of the titanic struggle between a mogul and his physician daughter who becomes embedded in the war on terror torture program. Greed, war-lust and sexual enslavement lead to a subtle but growing resistance and whistle-blowing.  The play created a sensation at the Art of Justice: 9/11 Performance Project at the Gerald W. Lynch Theater, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, last September.  The play has since become a magnet for human rights activists, lawyers and authors who will speak and dialogue with the audience after each performance during A Festival of Conscience.

“Another Life,” called “Stinging & Satirical” by the Kenyon Review which published a long excerpt from the play in the Fall 2010 issue, had a first reading at Dixon Place.
“Another Life” received an On the Road travel grant from Theater Communications Group and was presented as a staged reading at the National Theater of Kosovo, in June 2011.  

George Bartenieff, four-time Obie Award winner, stars as the mogul Handel and has been with the production from the start; Christen Clifford (“Baby Love”) is his wife, Tess.  They will be joined for the Irondale run by Susan Hyon (“Happy Hour,” Atlantic Theater), Sevan K. Greene (“Betrayed,” “Aftermath”) Andrew Guilarte (“Invasion,” Obie Award Best Play), and Abranham Makany (“The Brig,” Obie Award Best Ensemble).
