A Brooklyn love story & Garbo dreams

Apr 26, 2013 1142

Join us for an evening of staged reading excerpts from two plays written and performed by two talented Italian-American women; Chiara Montalto and Lauren LoGiudice.

A BROOKLYN LOVE STORY, by Chiara Montalto, is a tale set in Brooklyn about the profound effect a grandfather and his granddaughter have on each other as one's life is ending while the other's is just beginning. Equally hilarious and touching, A BROOKLYN LOVE STORY is based on the playwright's own experience, having spent the greater part of her twenties living with her grandfather.

The play GARBO DREAMS is a portrayal of the powerful scenario in which Greta Garbo faces the last hours of her life and is forced to make choices that will affect her legacy. Everyone's heard that she wanted "to be left alone," but what happened from there? No one's ever truly been sure.

According to actor, model and stage impresario Lauren LoGiudice, GARBO DREAMS serves as a loving homage to a woman who taught her how to belong to herself.
