The Play in the Apartment 

Please join us as this month's Salon features a play set in an apartment. How convenient!  The play, written by Daniel Mitura, features 3 characters in an apartment. A buffet dinner will be served immediately following the play. The playwright and the actors will be in attendance to answer all your questions.  As always, the cast of characters -both onstage and off- will be quite colorful and intriguing.
