 Here is the first look at the flyer for our upcoming ZU-NYC staged reading of “Captive Pilgrim”, a new dramatic offering from NYC playwright Anel Carmona and under the direction of Paul Edwards.

And here is the more completed flyer with more Zero Untitled information on it.

And here is the promotional blurb, written by Anel Carmona: Zero Untitled – NYC presents the first stage reading of “Captive Pilgrim”. The Big Apple’s branch of the seasoned Texan company, Zero Untitled, presents the first stage reading of the new play “Captive Pilgrim”, by Anel Carmona. Based on the short story by Gabriel Garcia Marquez “I Only Came to Use the Phone”, “Captive Pilgrim” sets us back to 1970s Spain where a woman named Maria mistakenly rides a bus that leads her into inexplicable confusions that will change her life. Directed by Paul Edwards and with a full Hispanic cast, “Captive Pilgrim” deals with the subjects of credibility and mental health from the perspective of both: people who should be believed in and people who should believe. The question is which is which? The reading, followed by a brief Q&A and a small reception, will take place on May 11th at The New Gallery located at 127 Tompkins Avenue, Brooklyn, NY. Admission is free with required RSVP to captivepilgrimtheplay@gmail.com Space is limited.
