AWESOME GIVEAWAY: 2 Tickets to Time Stands Still

Every so often there comes a play that really moves me. When I saw "Time Stands Still" produced by the Manhattan Theater Club on a limited engagement last spring, I was so mesmerized and amazed at how a story I had no connection to could really make me think the way I did. It also didn't hurt that Laura Linney, one of my favorite actresses, played one of the main characters.



Back for a more permanent run, "Time Stands Still" started previews at the Cort Theater on Sept. 23rd and opens Oct. 7. It tells the story of a war photographer dealing with the realities of real life back at home. It's a very poignant and intelligent story that gives another whole perspective to the politics and realities of war and brings a personal angle to it.

  3. Yael, this looks like a great blog to follow. I know you're like the guru of great finds from all the Postabon listings. I'd love to go see this play. I don't get to plays often enough and when I do, they're usually musicals. This is a stellar cast which should do this work proud. I can't afford to go see a Mamet play, so this would be awesome for myself and my wife for a needed night out.
