Annabella Sciorra will star in the Brooklyn International Theater Company’s reading of Nelson George’s Our BK, to be held at the Brooklyn Museum on Thursday, June 14 at 7pm, according to The New York Times. Alix Lambert will co-direct the reading with the author.


The play, which is loosely inspired by Thornton Wilder’s Our Town, stars Sciorra as Angel, a saucy Brooklynite who hears the stories of fellow residents ranging from Russian Jews on Brighton Beach to an older black man in downtown Brooklyn haunted by images of his youth.


Sciorra appeared on Broadway last year in The Motherf**ker With the Hat, and her other stage credits include Roar, Under the Blue Sky, and Those the River Keeps. Her many film and television credits include Jungle Fever, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, and The Sopranos, for which she received an Emmy Award nomination.
