Readings of the James Edwin Parker play, which debuted at the Rattlestick in 1994-95, will be presented Feb. 7 and 8 at 8 PM. The cast features Obie Award winner David Drake, Asa Somers and Noam Rubin. Two Boys in a Bed on a Cold Winter's Night, according to production notes, "chronicles a one-night stand that forever changes the lives of two gay men in the West Village."
