Coyote StageWorks' THE WOMEN Reading Will Feature Charles Busch, Lucie Arnaz and More, 1/19

Coyote StageWorks launched its fourth season on November 23 with the Tony-nominated comedy "Souvenir" and follows up with a starry reading of THE WOMEN on January 19.

On January 19, CSW will produce; a One-Night-Only Gala Benefit - a staged reading of THE WOMEN by Clare Booth Luce. Presented by WELLS FARGO, this wickedly funny, streamlined version of the hilarious catfight that made "jungle red" nail polish synonymous with sharp-clawed backstabbing will be a star-studded night to remember. Scheduled to appear are Lucie Arnaz, Kaye Ballard, Nancy Bleiweiss-Nevil, Mary Jo Catlett, Carole Cook, Mo Gaffney, Helene Galen, Beth Grant, Barbara Keller, Michele Lee, Vicki Lewis, Bets Malone, Charles Busch, and many more surprise guests!

For the second season in a row, all productions will be staged at the Annenberg Theatre which is located at The Palm Springs Museum Of Art in downtown Palm Springs. CSW was formed in 2008 by a group of friends seeking to lead more creative lives while giving back to their community. Some company members were looking to return to the stage after years spent in unrelated careers while others were veteran performers looking for new challenges in their careers. The Common bond was the conviction that Theatre enriches lives. It enriches the individual and the community. CSW's mission is to bring affordable, entertaining, and thought-provoking theatre to Palm Springs and the surrounding communities of the Coachella Valley and to create an Actors' Equity Theater of local, regional, and national influence.
