Zorich and Metwally to Star in Beast on the Moon at the Century Center

Richard Kalinoski's Beast on the Moon is coming to New York's Century Center for the Performing Arts. The drama, starring Tony-nominated actors Louis Zorich and Omar Metwally, is set to begin performances off-Broadway on April 12, according to The New York Times.

In Beast on the Moon, an Armenian mail-order bride comes to Milwaukee to begin a life with her new husband, Aram Metwally. However, both are tormented by the Armenian genocide. He desperately wants a large family, but she is barren from the years of torture and starvation she endured. Then a young stranger enters their lives and changes them forever. Zorich plays an older gentleman who tells the tale.

Beast on the Moon, directed by Larry Moss, will officially open on April 27.
