The 6 PM reading will feature Becca Ayers as Lillian, Patrick Page as Stephen and Derek Smith as Jay. Jeff Lee directs with associate direction by Terry Berliner. The Other Side of Darkness, according to production notes, tells the story of "Stephen and Lillian Manners, artists who find themselves swept up in the perils and rewards that go along with success. Art and fame interweave into an explosive cacophony of disappointment and addiction."

Patrick Page has appeared on Broadway in The Lion King, Julius Caesar, The Kentucky Cycle, Beauty and the Beast and A Christmas Carol.
