LTV Studios and Playwrights’ Theatre of East Hampton series, founded in 1992 by Mitzi and Perry Pazer and now revived by producer Josh Gladstone, in association with Where Are They Going Theater Company will host a full production of “(O)n the 5:31” at LTV from April 4 to April 6.

Written by Mando Alvarado, directed by David Zayas Jr. and produced by Sawyer Spielberg and Josh Gladstone, “(O)n the 5:31” travels back and forth across a 10-year span of two intertwined relationships. As he struggles to complete his wife’s dying wishes, a grieving Benny tries to piece the fragments of their life together from memory. In the end, he’ll come to understand that he wasn’t the only one who lost the love of his life. An examination on the twists and turns of life and the space between what really happened and how we want to remember it.

“This is the New York World Premiere of a brand new play that will take you on a journey into a lustful world whose power draws specifically from memory,” said Sawyer Spielberg. “You will ask yourself what is the truth and what do we create in our imagination. This will be a story told to you by some of New York City’s best talent.”

“(O)n the 5:31” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 4, Friday, April 5, and Saturday, April 6. General admission tickets are $20 at ltveh.org. LTV Studios is at 75 Industrial Road in Wainscott.
