Danny And The Deep Blue Sea at Crown City Theatre Company

"An explosive, deeply affecting study of alienation and the redemptive power of love." –NY Daily News STARRING: Juliet Landau* (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, ANGEL, ED WOOD) Matthew J. Williamson (SEDONA, HELTER SKELTER) DIRECTED BY: John McNaughton (MAD DOG AND GLORY, WILD THINGS, HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER) AUTHOR: John Patrick Shanley (DOUBT, MOONSTRUCK, JOE VS. THE VOLCANO) Shanley describes this play as an Apache dance and dedicates it to, "everyone in the Bronx who punched me or kissed me, and to everyone whom I punched or kissed." THE STORY: The play revolves around the dilapidated lives of Danny and Roberta, two tortured strangers who meet by chance at a dive bar in the Bronx. Danny, an emotionally unstable, street brawling truck driver, and Roberta, a self-loathing, troubled woman, collide in a morbidly humorous, violent and vulgar fairy tale about a frightening and ultimately fascinating relationship. A BRUTALLY, SWEET LOVE STORY
