HOW TO PRAY

Three actors play - among others - a reluctant surrogate mother, a 90-year-old cancer patient, a CasualEncounters.com boyfriend, a nine-year-old boy, an unremitting telemarketer, a passive-aggressive housecat, a relentlessly optimistic rescue dog, and a karaoke-singing pre-op transsexual soup kitchen worker in Michelle Carter's quirky and hilarious new comedy, winner of the Susan Glaspell Contest for "Best New Play" and the PEN USA Award for Drama. Eight performances only, September 14-24. Thursdays thru Saturdays at 7:30, Sundays at 2:00, Bridge Street Theatre, 44 West Bridge Street in Catskill. $25, $10 for Students.
