DANNY AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA

The Seeing Place Theater, known for intensely intimate ensemble work,  extends their critically acclaimed production of John Patrick Shanley's brutal and romantic story of "Beauty and the Beast in the Bronx."

About the show: A man and a woman,  both lonely outcasts,  meet in a bar - in desperate need of a change. He is violent and possibly homicidal,  she is tormented and possibly suicidal; each is transformed by the love of the other. The New York Times suggested the play would be more appropriately titled,  "The Beast and the Beast". If so,  this is the story of two beasts fighting to accept beauty into their lives.  "One word frees us of all the weight and pain in life. That word is love." - Sophocles

Tickets only $15. For tickets visit www.smarttix.com or call 212-868-4444.

About the Company: The Seeing Place Theater

The Seeing Place Theater is an actor-driven ensemble known for its intense and intimate work. We are forcefully committed to:

THE ACTOR'S PROCESS: Through robust table work and improvisation, we focus on honoring the actor's artistry in creating a character and building a story, which extends from rehearsal into performance.

ORGANIC STORYTELLING:Unlike other companies, we do not set staging (blocking) or cement our choices in advance. What audiences see is a group of actors "in the moment" - working off one another to tell a fresh story that is never the same night to night.
