Full casting has been announced for the Attic Theatre’s West Coast premiere of Jeff Whitty’s The Hiding Place, May 23-June 28. Kevin Fabian will direct.

Set in mid-90’s New York City, the play concerns Karl, a popular but unsatisfied novelist and Myra, a struggling playwright/waitress new to the city.
