Martin, Groff, Kudisch, Slezak, Seldes and More Set for Project Shaw's Saint Joan

By Andrew Gans
30 Nov 2008

Jonathan Groff

The Project Shaw series will continue Dec. 22 with George Bernard Shaw's Saint Joan.

The reading at the Players Club will boast the talents of Madeleine Martin, John Bolton, Teddy Eck, Alvin Epstein, Adam Feldman, Jack Gilpin, Jonathan Groff, Stephen Mo Hanan, Tim Jerome, Larry Keith, Simon Kendall, Jack Koenig, Marc Kudisch, Jon Levenson, James Ludwig, Daniel Marconi, Victor Slezak, Daniel Truman and Nick Wyman with special guest Marian Seldes. Show time is 7 PM.

Saint Joan, according to Project Shaw, is described as such: "It was the defining moment of an age. It was a woman who defined it. Shaw's witty play about Joan of Arc."

The Project Shaw series is produced and directed by David Staller, who acted with Dana Ivey in Shaw's Mrs. Warren's Profession at the Irish Repertory Theatre. The series intends to offer every sketch, full-length and one-act play by the late playwright.

Past participants include Blair Brown, Mark Kudisch, Kerry Butler, Tyne Daly, Jonathan Hadary, Daniel Jenkins, Rebecca Luker, Michael Cerveris, Karen Ziemba, Michele Pawk, Bruce Vilanch, Jack Gilpin and George S. Irving.

Project Shaw will continue in 2009 with Dark Lady of the Sonnets (Jan. 19), Boyant Billions (Feb. 16), GTG Benefit with O'Flaherty V.C. (March 16), Inca of Perusalem (April 20), Glimpse of Reality/The Man of Destiny (May 18), Six of Calais/Simpleton of the Unexpected Isles (June 15), Mrs. Warren's Profession (July 20), Back to Methuselah (Part One) (Sept. 21), Back to Methuselah (Part Two) (Oct. 19), On the Rocks (Nov. 16) and Why She Would Not (Dec. 14).

The Players Club is located in Manhattan at 16 Gramercy Park South. Tickets, priced $20, will be available beginning Dec. 1 by calling (212) 352-3101. For more information visit www.projectshaw.com.
