The work, which previously played at the China Club and Theatre 80, began Dec. 8 and opened at Dodger Stages Dec. 10. New Scenario Entertainment produces with Brian Howie, Thomas Hanna, and Paul Bordé.

Conceived and directed by Brian Howie, Pieces (of Ass) features original monologues which center on the topic of being an attractive woman.
