Hearts and Flowers

When two heart-attack victims, forced to recuperate in the same hospital room, begin to speak their minds, peace and quiet go out the door and chaos comes in. Wives, nurses, and surgeons add to the confusion. Think Odd Couple with bedpans. This is the first public reading of Hearts and Flowers, the latest from Richard Baer, whose Mixed Emotions ran on Broadway in the 1990s. The reading is presented by Times Square Playwrights and features Stu Richel*, Tom Thornton, Janice Mann, Deborah Hope*, Marisel Polanco, Milton James*, Bianca Jordan, and Larry Herold. Tom Thornton directs.
