LAST DAY takes the place of THE GERMAN by Lyle Kessler , which was cancelled due to playwright illness. Tickets already purchased for 'The German' will be honored at staged readings of LAST DAY.

Set over the course of a single, suspenseful night in a Queens cemetery, Vetere's play focuses on two gravediggers and one woman who must confront a web of adultery, murder, and the mob. They'll be forced to decide whether it's better to pay for your sins in this life - or the next.

The performance will feature PlayFest alums Dan Lauria and Ray Abruzzo with Maja Wampuszyc , who rounds out the cast.

The performance of LAST DAY will take place on Friday, June 26th at 3pm at the FLC Community Concert Hall. Tickets are $25 and can be purchased at the Durango PlayFest website. The full festival schedule, including free events, can also be found at the website.
