The Producing Unit presents
154 & Paradise
Who Among Us is Guilty?
Written by Gerald DiPego
Directed by Peter Frisch
September 22-30, 2023
With a hearty dose of magical realism, DiPego paints a portrait of a group of people called together by a mysterious Examiner to investigate the connection they may have had to an accident at 154 & Paradise which results in the death of a man.
"When you get to the corner of 154 & Paradise at Center Stage Theater there are fireworks galore, and a final twist keeps the audience guessing all the way to the end of the road” ~ Charles Donalan, Independent, 1/28/2015
