The York Theatre presents a reading of the new musical Friends Like These. When Holly Summerhays, a young, new-to-the-city reporter for NY1, arrives at real estate heiress Dee Dee Hollingsworth's eastside condo to interview her as New Yorker of the Week for her work in introducing opera to youngsters, she is inducted into the socialite's circle of friends which includes soap opera vamp, Dana Reynolds and curmudgeonly, wisecracking author, Meg Lafferty. Their friendship solidifies as they teach Holly the ins and outs of New York City, despite some setbacks in their personal lives.
