We are thrilled to be opening PETER BROOK: THE TIGHTROPE this Friday at the Music Hall.

As it happens the Center for the Art of Performance at UCLA opens a Peter Brook play, THE SUIT, this week at the Freud Playhouse. “Devastation by enchantment,” sang Ben Brantley in the New York Times.

And if you bring your ticket stub from the play to the Music Hall for any screening of PETER BROOK, you may buy tickets at a good discount: $6 each. Also, check out this piece the L.A. Times published today about Brook and the UCLA production.
