June 7, 2008 "The Oldest Profession"
The island etc (east end theatre company) presents Paula Vogel's "The Oldest Profession". The time is 1981, and the New York economy is weak. Are you still trying to eke out a living- though they all could qualify for an AARP card- are five veteran "ladies of the night" who have something of a communal business arragement. You will see as times gets harder and the ladies' elderly clientele grows increasingly impotent, business sags, and women increasingly find themselves in a state of turmoil. So, come on down to the
Galveston Island to enjoy this entertainment. We also have some affordable rates for
vacation rentals. This event will be located on 2001 Postoffice St.
