Brooke Wetterhahn Joins "Naked Call" Reading TONIGHT

Published by New Jersey Stage

originally published: 12/20/2018


(NEW HOPE, PA) --  Brooke Wetterhahn joins the cast of Naked Call and will now be performing as “Jennifer” in tonight's reading.  Naked Call, a brand-new play by award-winning playwright, Ken Kaissar, which is premiering as a professionally staged reading, produced by New Feathers Productions, tonight at James A. Michener Art Museum. 

The play revolves around an Off-Off-Broadway theatre company who produces a futuristic, post-apocalyptic, Dystopian tale, but the concept requires that the piece be performed in the nude.  The play is fully rehearsed and the cast gathers for the first naked rehearsal. Hesitation sets in and causes the cast to scrutinize the concept.  Are we getting naked out of necessary artistic expression?  Or is this a desperate attempt to be noticed?  Note:  The real cast performing will be clothed.

The complete Naked Call cast includes: Michael Gamache as Patrick; Eileen Cella as Lorraine; Jason Silverman as Tim; Daniel Patrick Smith as Dirk; Brooke Wetterhahn as Jennifer; and Miriam White as Lisa.

Naked Call is a staged reading professionally produced and presented by New Feathers Productions, exclusively at the James A. Michener Art Museum on December 20th.  Naked Call concludes the 2018 New Feathers Season.  Show ticket-holders enjoy an included museum pass with access to the latest exhibitions and the ever-popular, pre-show wine gathering with the creatives at 6:15pm, Naked Call starts promptly at 7:00pm and runs approximately 75 minutes. All-inclusive tickets on sale for a flat-fee of $20.00 and are available now at MichenerArtMuseum.org

New Feathers Productions is a professionally produced, ever-expanding playwright and performance reading series devoted to new works and are will be accepting open-submissions from all playwrights, submission details TBA.  From inception and onto their exciting, second-season this fall, NFP promises to showcase theatrical works currently created by the award-winning playwrights of Princeton’s Witherspoon Circle and Bucks County area playwrights.
