Alan Cumming set for reading of "I Want to Be Evil"


A starry cast has been assembled for a private industry reading of David Brind's new play, I Want To Be Evil, which will be held in Manhattan tomorrow (April 11).

Directed by Will Frears (Still Life, The Water's Edge), the cast will boast Tony Award winner Alan Cumming (Cabaret, CBS' "The Good Wife"), Sandra Bernhard (I'm Still Here... Damn It, Martin Scorsese's "The King of Comedy"), Golden Globe nominee Tom Cavanagh ("Yogi Bear," NBC's “Ed”), Ashlie Atkinson (Fat Pig, The Bridge Project) and Lucas Near-Verbrugghe (Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson, The Ritz).

David Brind wrote the acclaimed film "Dare," which premiered in Dramatic Competition at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and stars Emmy Rossum ("Shameless"), Zach Gilford (NBC's "Friday Night Lights") and Rooney Mara ("The Social Network"). "Dare" was released theatrically in 2009 and is available both digitally and on DVD/Blu-Ray. Brind's recent projects include the screenplay adaptation of the newly released book "Leverage" for Academy Award-winning producer Stanley Jaffe. He is a graduate of Yale (BA) and Columbia (MFA) Universities.

Shane Marshall Brown and Charly Seamon will produce the reading.
