Leopoldville in the USA

My play, Leopoldville (winner of the 2010 Papatango New Writing Award), is to receive its first staged reading in the US at the end of February. It will be part of Curio Theatre's New Play Reading series and is the featured International play. The Curio Theatre is in Philadelphia and I have to say I'm thoroughly looking forward to the reading.  The play explores the effects the recession of the 1980s had on an Irish border town and how a gang of unemployed youths get caught up in a terrible and vicious crime.  http://www.curiotheatre.org/   Thank you for the feedback.
