Small Town Confessions, a new play by Phil Geoffrey Bond, will be presented as part of the Broadway Bound Theatre Festival. Three performances will be held at the 14th Street Y on August 10 at 12:30pm, August 12 at 3:30pm, and August 14 at 7:30pm.

Small Town Confessions is described in a press release as "a visit, through a collection of lively monologues, with the colorful residents of Anitola, Louisiana. Rumors of encounters with martians, a special stopover from Diana Ross, an obsession with the musical Wicked, a has-been Walt Disney World employee, a chat with the bride of Satan, and the creative use of spray glitter are all tales told in this homespun account of small-town living, hosted by Jobeth Maybelline, manicurist to the town and keeper of community secrets."

The cast will feature Tony winner Daisy Eagan (The Secret Garden), Tony winner Alice Ripley (Next to Normal), Tony nominee Sally Mayes (She Loves Me), and Tony nominee Sharon McNight (Starmites). Also featured in the company are Phil Geoffrey Bond, George Kimmel, Kelli Rabke, Jeff Tuohy, and Tyler Whitaker. Stephen Nachamie directs, with stage management by Jason Richard.

Now in its inaugural year, the Broadway Bound Theatre Festival runs through August 20 at the 14th Street Y.
