Six soldiers killed in battle rise up to tell the world about the dishonesty and brutality of war in Bury the Dead by novelist Irwin Shaw. Shaw's timely and timeless anti-war classic runs at The Actors' Gang August 16 through September 13. Two low -priced previews take place on August 14 and 15.

Set "in the second year of the war that is to begin tomorrow night," Bury the Dead is the story of six dead soldiers who doggedly refuse to be buried - thereby creating a national crisis that is at once sad, moving and wickedly funny. Shaw's first play was written in 1935 before he became a world-famous novelist.

Performances of Bury the Dead take place Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 3 pm, August 16 through September 13. The performance on Friday, February September 5 will be sign-language interpreted for the hearing impaired. Two preview performances take place on Thursday, August 14 and Friday, August 15 at 8 pm. Reserved seating is $25.00 Thursday through Sunday, except Opening Night (Saturday, August 16) for which tickets are $50.00 and include a catered post-show reception with the cast; $20.00.for students, seniors, members of the military and veterans; and $15.00 for previews. Pay-What-You-Can "Rush" tickets are available to all performances at the door, 30 minutes prior to curtain, subject to availability.

Two hours free parking is available throughout downtown Culver City; the Ince Parking Lot (corner of Culver and Ince) is directly across the street from the theater. In addition, several restaurants (Italian, French, Thai, Japanese, and more) are only a few blocks' walk from The Actors' Gang and offer a variety of dining options before and after the theater.
