"Providential Occurrence" chosen for reading

Garett's stage reading at The Fountain Theatre on October 13th, 2003 garnered some serious interest.

Producers are pleased to announce that A Providential Occurrence has been selected out of approx. 800 + scripts for inclusion in New York's Abingdon Theatre's 2004/2005 read series. 

This closed performance, staging only for producers, directors and casting agents was actually a two act play (inspired by the Amistad incident) with additional co-lead performances by:  Carmen Argenziano, Bari Hochwald, Matt Carmody, Duke Stroud, Jacob Witkin, Bernadette Speaks, Charles Parks, John Wesley and Ron Lawrence.  This original work was written by Jodie Lewis, Co-Author Producer 'A Providential Occurrence' and Henry G. Sanders.

The play has now gone through many re-writes, not the least of which is downsizing the cast of 26 to 12, and from a running time of two hours plus - to ninety five minutes - it would probably not even be recognizable to some of those who, for reasons of professional commitments or parts lost, are no longer with the production.

This DOES NOT mean that Garett will be performing this play in New York.  No details regarding cast and crew for the "Read Series" are known at this time.
