Although this reading of "Waiting for Whitey" was a one-time event, the artistic director at the Hayworth, Gary Blumsack, continues to produce outstanding plays. (No, I'm not related and don't know him.) This is the fourth play I've seen at the Hayworth in the past month and the stories, actors, directing is consistently fabulous. It's a beautiful, intimate space too. I highly recommend anything at the Hayworth.
