About this event
Join Us for a Killer Evening of Laughter! Two nights only!
Sunday, July 13 @ 3:00 PM

This July, the actors of EAG's Actors' Night (also known as "The Royal Episcopal Guilders") present a benefit reading of Arsenic and Old Lace to support performers in need! Peter Von Berg directs. Cast to be announced soon!
Joseph Kesserling's beloved dark comedy is one for the ages, featuring two sweet old ladies, one innocent nephew, and a heap of murderous chaos. Come for the laughs, stay for the bodies in the basement. Reserve your seat now—this is deadly good fun you won’t want to miss!

EAG's Health & Safety Rules: Masks are strongly recommended but no longer required in Guild Hall. Please stay home if you are sick or if you have tested positive for covid, RSV, or the flu. For more details, please visit www.actorsguild.org/covid-safety-protocols.
Directions: The Episcopal Actors’ Guild (EAG)/Guild Hall is located at 1 EAST 29th STREET, NYC 10016 (midblock between Madison and Fifth, between #3 and #9 East 29th Street) on the second floor of the Church of the Transfiguration (aka the Little Church Around the Corner). We are NOT the big church on the corner of Fifth Avenue; that's Marble Collegiate. When you arrive at the Little Church, enter through the main gate and go through the garden to the door marked Guild Hall (between the main doors into the church and the door to the parish office).
Getting Here: The closest subways are the R/W or 6 at 28th Street or the B/D/F/M or N/Q/R/W at 34th Street/Herald Square. If you are arriving by bus, take the M1, M2, M3, M5, M6, or M7.
Parking: Due to ongoing construction to replace a city water main, there is currently no on-street parking available on East 29th Street between Madison and Fifth Avenues. The two closest parking garages are located across the street at 10 East 29th Street and around the block at 10 East 30th Street.
Lobby: Guild Hall does NOT have a lobby or waiting area. You are welcome to enjoy the Little Church’s garden (weather permitting) if you arrive before the house opens.
Accessibility: Guild Hall is not a fully ADA-compliant venue. However, we do our best to accommodate all patrons. Guild Hall is located up one flight of stairs (20 steps). There is no elevator; however, a stair chair is available for those who need assistance making it up to or down from Guild Hall. EAG’s staff will be happy to assist you upon request.
Late seating: We cannot guarantee late seating.
