Center
by Broadway.com Staff
Richard Kalinoski’s Beast on the Moon is coming to New York’s Century
Center for the Performing Arts. The drama, starring Tony-nominated
actors Louis Zorich and Omar Metwally, is set to begin performances
off-Broadway on April 12, according to The New York Times.
In Beast on the Moon, an Armenian mail-order bride comes to Milwaukee
to begin a life with her new husband, Aram (Zorich). However, both
are tormented by the Armenian genocide. He desperately wants a large
family, but she is barren from the years of torture and starvation
she endured. Then a young stranger (Metwally) enters their lives and
changes them forever.
Beast on the Moon, directed by Larry Moss, will officially open on
April 27.
