Billy Goda's new thriller Dust opened at Off-Broadway's Westside Theatre Dec. 4.
The work, according to press notes, "is a power play. One man is an executive with money and a paunch. The other is an ex-con with street smarts and a minimum-wage position. What starts off as a battle of wills over who will do the dusting escalates into a war for respect, the upper hand and survival. Who will be standing when the dust settles?"
Show times are Tuesday-Friday at 8 PM, Saturday at 3 and 8 PM and Sunday at 3 and 7 PM.
Tickets, priced $65, are available by visiting www.telecharge.com or by calling (212) 239-6200. The Westside Theatre is located in Manhattan at 407 West 43rd Street.
Here is a look at the opening-night curtain call and after-party held at Manhattan eatery 44 1/2 at 626 10th Avenue:
