The Theater Project, Union County College's Professional Theater Company, will perform a script-in-hand staged reading of Without X-Cess, a new play by New Jersey playwright Matty Daley. The production will be followed by a lively discussion with the playwright, director, actors and audience.

Currently a student at The College of New Jersey, Matty Daley is a two-time past winner and honorable mention recipient of The Theater Project’s Young Playwrights Competition. He is also a recent semi-finalist in Stephen Sondheim’s National Young Playwrights Competition. In 2011, he is looking to continue his studies as he pursues a graduate degree in dramatic writing.

Without X-Cess imagines a world 20 years from now where all the women have disappeared. What if men had to go through labor pains and morning sickness? Will humankind perish, or will the men who remain step up to the plate?
