Adam starred in a staged reading of Blair Singer’s The Most Damaging Wound with the Piece Project and Vs. Theatre Company at the Ford Theatre in Los Angeles on Monday night.

The reading featured the talents of David Denman, Devon Gummersall, Jason Ritter, Adam Shapiro, Amy Smart and Rider Strong.

“Five old college friends reunite for an evening of reckless drinking, but the men acknowledge that their youth is over,” according to press notes. The play made its world premiere at The Manhattan Theatre Source in November 2008.

Founded by Devon Gummersall and Andrew Carlberg, The Piece Project is a celebrity-based theatre ensemble. Every two months, The Piece Project and Vs. Theatre Company host a play reading at [Inside] the Ford in Hollywood, as Vs. begins its quest to acquire a permanent theatre space.

Hey, Morgan! is extending it’s run to December 16th after being praised in the LA Times, Variety, and LA Weekly as THE show to see this month in LA!

“CRITIC’S PICK! This is a miniature musical of superior stature that might rock the socks off the competition. At the doting hands of her adoring parents (splendid Meagan English and too terrific Adam Shapiro, who also play all the other parts), whatever Morgan wants, Morgan gets—including a new, mama-inspired, straightened nose; a summer camp unfettering of her badge of innocence, as it were; a doting boyfriend to yearn for; the college of her choice; an idealized, diminishingly perfect first job—at CAA, no less; a precious gap year in some fashionable location; and finally the man of her dreams.
” Madeleine Shaner, Backstage West

“It’s virtually impossible to leave the Black Dahlia without a big grin on your face.”
Bob Verini, Variety

“The story traces the life of Morgan (a winning Martha Marion), an affluent Jewish girl from Brentwood who is seen from age 13 all the way to her somewhat perfunctory death. The bulk of the action concerns Morgan’s quest for love and her eventual marriage. Charming Meagan English and hilarious Adam Shapiro, who scores many of the laughs, play all the other roles, with Laskin functioning as a guitar-strumming singer/narrator. Youthful ebullience abounds in Hey, Morgan! at the Black Dahlia Theatre–the first musical in that prestigious theater’s history. If you’re in the mood for glitzy escapism, consummately rendered, this could be your ticket.”
F. Kathleen Foley, Los Angeles Times
