September 27, 2024: Things We "Heard" and Would Like To Share ...

Only a Few Performances Remain;  Don't Miss Matt Freeman's The Ask

There is still some time left -- but not much -- to catch the off-Broadway hit show, The Ask, written by Boyertown Area Senior High class of '94 alum, Matt Freeman. So if you're in NYC, or planning to be, grab those tickets now.  (See the remaining performances and ticket information  below.)  

The author of many other well-received short plays, and the recipient of numerous awards, Freeman is proud of the rave reviews The Ask has received. The production has been mostly crowd-funded, and those who donated, were rewarded for having faith in Freeman's creative skills and his creative team. 

Sarah Holdren's Sept. 12 review in Vulture, New York Magazine's entertainment and culture website, says, "If you’ve got an appetite for even more generational conflict, then Matthew Freeman has written a play for you." Freeman's  "achievement is not only to capture two voices with both precision and spiky humor, but also to venture on a generous exploration of two full, wildly different humanities. Each is trying to construct a bridge to someone on their own side, yet it’s a bridge made of matches over a river of flame.”

Remaining shows and ticket information:

Friday, September 27 at 7:30pm, and Saturday, September 28 at 2pm & 7:30pm. Tickets are available for advance purchase at https://thewildproject.org/performances/the-ask/. The performance will run approximately 80 minutes, with no intermission.
