WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Horse Trade Theater Group presents The Secret Narrative of the Phone Book, a new play by Gordon Cox, featuring Bill Dawes, Natalie Gold, Brandon Miller and John C. Vennema. Suzanne Agins directs.
The Secret Narrative of the Phone Book is a romantic comedy hijacked by a conspiracy thriller. It follows a sexy freedom fighter's daring plan to corrupt a global media conglomerate by seducing two of its employees at the same time. Its tongue-in-cheek techno-paranoia seriously questions the possibility of a genuine connection between human beings.
There are additional 3pm performances on Sundays, February 20th and 27th, and a 7pm performance on Monday, February 7th.
