Wes Farley, a screenwriter known for having HIV, is enjoying national attention with his latest film. There’s only one problem: he's faked his illness for the past 10 years to boost his career, and is beginning to comprehend the drawbacks of his plan. With the help of his friend Josie, Wes revisits his past and sees how an ill-advised white lie early in life ensnared him in his current situation.

After enjoying an extended sold-out run at the Brick Theater's Antidepressant Festival in 2009, getting nominated for a 2010 New York Innovative Theatre Award for Outstanding Original Full-Length Script and being published by Original Works Publishing, Nosedive is remounting its darkly comic Infectious Opportunity for this year's New York International Fringe Festival.

Infectious Opportunity will be performed at the Living Theatre (21 Clinton St. in New York) as part of The 2011 New York International Fringe Festival on Saturday, August 13 @ 5:30pm; Thursday, August 18 @ 2pm; Friday, August 19 @ 9pm; Friday, August 26 @ 2pm; and Saturday, August 27 @ 10:15pm. Subway: B D F or M train to 2nd Avenue or F J M Z train to Delancey Street. For tickets ($15 in advance, $18 at the door), visit http://www.fringenyc.org or call 866-468-7619.

Tickets will be on sale beginning Friday, July 22.

I couldn't buy tickets from the Nosedive Productions website or the Fringe website. I'm visiting from out of town, so I can't purchase in person. Help!

Oh, fear not, Heather. Tickets aren't yet on sale - they won't be until this Friday (July 22). So try again on Friday, and all should be well!
