On the brink of a revolutionary discovery, a liberal biologist has to choose between altruism and financial success. Ensemble Studio Theatre and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation’s Science and Technology Project present a staged reading of Israel Horovitz’s promises.com, starring Bob Dishy, Novella Nelson, Douglas Simmons, and Mary McCormack, and directed by Michael Morris from Old Vic Theatre. An audience talk-back with the author, director, and cast will immediately follow the reading.
