LOS ANGELES (Sept. 30, 2013) – The Bells of West 87th, the hilarious and heartfelt new comedy by Elin Hampton, has extended its run at the Greenway Court Theatre through Oct. 27.
The stage comedy about an almost-40-year-old amateur poet who brings her new boyfriend home to meet her dysfunctional family has received positive reviews for writing, direction and an acting ensemble that includes Buffy, Angel, Smallville and Torchwood fan-favorite James Marsters, Buffy alum Dagney Kerr, Carol Locatell (original Broadway cast of Broadway Bound), Cameron Meyer (Three Sisters at the Odyssey Theatre) and Robert Towers (original Los Angeles Snoopy in You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown).
“Rings in a cast of a loveable oddballs… a memorably disastrous family dinner that is as funny as it is fateful,” wrote the Los Angeles Times. The LA Weekly said, “GO… Hampton’s characters as played by a vibrant cast are far more eccentric than usual and grab us deliciously from the start.” And Frontiers agrees, “The writing by Hampton is sharp and clever… A completely enjoyable evening with terrific performances and snappy direction by Richard Pierce.”
Performances of The Bells of West 87th continue on Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays @ 6 p.m. through Oct. 27 General admission for all performances is $34.
