Irish American Crossroads Festival 2012 - John Patrick Shanley's Beggars In The House of Plenty March 5, 2012

Crossroads partners with Off Broadway West Theatre Company to present a dramatic reading of Beggars in the House of Plenty, by Pulitzer-Prize winning playwright John Patrick Shanley.

With its 2nd offering in our play reading series, San Francisco's own Off Broadway West Theatre Company presents Beggars in the House of Plenty by John Patrick Shanley. "In his most autobiographical work to date, John Patrick Shanley takes on the demons and angels of the past that are never quite put to rest because they are family. Fast-paced, furious and unrelenting, this highly stylized play explores the myths and reality of an Irish-American family at war with itself.
