Join us for
A Starry Night
with
dinner and a song serenade
before the
reading of the new comedy
Where is Everybody?
by Kevin Daly at Woodwinds
29 School Ground Road, Branford
Wednesday, March 25th at 6pm
Stephanie Stiefel Williams* and Keely Baisden Knudsen* will croon cosmos-related songs as you dine as a pre-reading warm-up to the comedy's theme!
About the Play:
In Where is Everybody? a retiring high school physics teacher attempts to connect with his two sons by engaging in his oldest son’s imaginative entrepreneurial ideas. The title of the play eludes to the Fermi Paradox, which asks why we haven’t seen signs of intelligent life in the universe despite the overwhelming statistical probability that we should. Through the lens of comedy, the play asks big questions about the universe and our place within it.
The Reading "stars":
Kevin Daly
Thomas Schwans*
Michael Sayers

This script was the winner of the 2016 Neil Simon Festival New Play Contest and was a winning script for the 2015 Pandora’s Box New Works Festival in Long Beach, California. Where is Everybody? was also named a finalist for the Reva Shiner Comedy Award and the Hope on Stage Award. In 2017 Where is Everybody? received a developmental reading at The Windy City Playhouse in Chicago and was presented at the NETC Theater Conference in Cromwell, Connecticut. Last October the play received a developmental reading as part of the Different Festival at the Santa Fe Playhouse.
