You read that right. My show THIRTEEN DAYS (by Robert F. Kennedy and adapted & directed by Brian Pastor) opens today! When I was asked to do this show, I had no idea what the show was about. Turns out, it was about the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962. I'd heard of the crisis but didn't really know what happened. Well, after rehearsing and teching this show, I'm thoroughly intrigued by the entire presidency of John F. Kennedy and by his "intellectual blood bank" Ted Sorensen (my character). I'm rarely ever interested in history but this show has positively affected my interests. I'm grateful to get to bring this true story to life on stage
(and the fact that the nuclear missiles weren't fired. Thank the Lord!).
The show runs Fridays-Sundays (and two Mondays) through Sunday, October 24th, 2021.

P.S. Did I mention that all of the roles in this show are played by WOMEN?
