DUNGENESS — “The Guys,” a play about a man and woman who help each other cope after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, will come to the Dungeness Schoolhouse stage Tuesday.
Admission is free to this Readers Theatre Plus event.
Curtain time is 7:30 p.m. at the schoolhouse at 2781 Towne Road.
This is an encore presentation of the drama, which brings together Nick, a New York City fire chief who lost several firefighters as the World Trade Center towers fell, and Joan, a journalist.
“The Guys,” written by Anne Nelson, was first performed last year in both Sequim and Port Angeles to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
This Sept. 11, actors Paul Martin and Carol Swarbrick Dries will reprise their roles as the fireman and the writer.
“We wanted to make this a tradition every Sept. 11 to honor the first-responders,” said Swarbrick Dries, co-founder of Readers Theatre Plus.
Since Readers Theatre Plus’ custom is to stage its plays as fundraisers for local nonprofit groups, patrons are welcome to make donations to benefit the American Legion Riders Post 29.
