June 14-22: The Old In and Out at Stage Left Theater, NYC

What happens when young newlyweds in the era of "free love" realize that "happily ever after" is the last thing they're likely to get? "The Old In and Out," a new play by Madeline Artenberg and Karen Hildebrand, directed by Kat Georges, tells the stories of four free-spirited women who, while looking for love, discover their true independent selves. Not since "The Vagina Monologues" has live theater captured the voices of contemporary women with such honesty and compassion. Adult themes and language.

A portion of profits will be donated to V-Day, a global movement to end violence against women and girls.

World Premiere: "THE OLD IN-AND-OUT"Bowery Poetry Club, Jan. 11

Three Rooms Press
presents
The World Premiere of

THE OLD IN-AND-OUT
an erotic, poetic play about love, lust and longing

written & performed by
Madeline Artenberg & Karen Hildebrand

music composed & performed by Nila K Leigh
original set art by Katherine Daniels

directed by Kat Georges

It starts with a kiss. A touch. A dream. It becomes a lifelong search: to discover what love means on your own terms. In this piece, two women strip away the facade of the common definition of love bit by bit, in the search to discover, in their own poetic voices, if true love actually exists, or if the idea of love is what in itself fosters adultery, hate and war. Faced with increasingly greater demons, their sheer determination drives them to keep going, like two would-be brides engaged to a doggedly obscured reality.

Let two women take you on the trip of a lifetime.

Live performance by members of Cady Wire immediately following the play.
