With two exceptions, area theaters are taking an August vacation to prepare for the fall season. However, there is one pre-Labor Day opening, on Saturday, August 28 at “Theater J,” the DC Jewish Community Center’s Goldman Theater–Something You Did, which runs through October 3:
“A stellar student from a good family, Alison Moulton is serving her 30th year behind bars for an anti-war bombing that resulted in the death of a police officer. Now petitioning for parole, she’s visited by the slain officer’s daughter, and a former comrade turned neo-conservative media star who not only argues against her, but implicates a past associate, now a public official residing in the White House. Smear politics, 60s revisionism, and the desire to rejoin society form the driving, conflicting forces in this ‘fluid and eloquent play.’ (The New York Times)
There are two shows playing this weekend:
- Noises Off, at the Church Street Theater, which has been extended through August 29.
- Washington Improv Theater’s The Neutrino Video Project opens Friday at the Source.
