Extended run!

A Beautiful Child is part of the FringeNYC Encore series, one of twelve shows from the 11th International New York Fringe Festival to have extended runs in late August and September 2007.

“This eloquent and hypnotic play is a revelatory and unforgettable encounter with two very distinct and provocative celebrities. Gracefully produced by the
Courthouse Theater Company, it is one conversation you don’t want to miss.”
