RAT PLAYREADING IN PROVIDENCE- Press Release



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PLAY READING SET FOR APRIL


The Acme Clown Company will host a reading of the new play
_Ragnarok:  A Tale of Destruction Told By a Clown_  at   the
AS220 Cafe in Providence RI  on Saturday, April 3 at 2 pm.

_Ragnarok_  tells the tale of the Norse myth of the Apocalypse.
In this new one-man show, a clown takes on the role of Loki the
Trickster, and tells the ancient story of the battle between the
gods and the giants that results in the destruction (and
re-birth) of the universe.

Based on the Norse Eddas, the script for _Ragnarok_  is written
by Rhode Island playwright Mark Binder. Mark is the former
artistic director of the Real Fun Theatre (deceased) and the
author of the humorous anti-diet book _Crumbs Don't Count: The
Rationalization Diet._ His previous plays include _Chickens_,
_Real Life in the 1990's_, _Your Mother Wears Liberace's Army
Boots_, and  _G.O'D_.

The reading will be performed by Adam Gertsacov, Boss Clown of
the Acme Clown Company. Adam has performed with many  local
theatres in Providence, and has recently returned from sold out
performances of his show _The Acme Miniature Circus_ at two
Brazilian theatre festivals.

The reading will be held Saturday April 3 at 2 pm at the AS220
Cafe, 71 Richmond Street in downtown Providence.
ADMISSION IS FREE.
For directions, please call AS220 at 401- 831-9327.
