The Bookstore by Michael Walek opened January 10 off-Broadway at 59E59 Theaters. Produced by New Jersey Repertory Company, the play is directed by William Carden and stars Quentin Chisholm, Ari Derambakhsh, Arielle Goldman, and Janet Zarish.

The play is described as a love letter to small bookstores and the bibliophiles who make them a home, The play is about indie bookstore owner Carey, who “has a special gift for recommending the perfect book…. While trying to survive in New York City, she has created a found family of coworkers who unite over their passion for literature–and a glass of wine. This band of misfits turn the pages of their lives and learn to navigate the plot twists that are thrown their way.”

Hopefully it won’t close before I get a chance to see it.
