Ken Dooley, Playwright/Producer, has a great story to tell. As an Irish Catholic youngster in Rhode Island, he grew up listening to the miscarriage of justice which characterized the original arrest, trial, conviction and hanging of John Gordon. Not only did he put the words on paper, bringing the legend to life - but he's also finally bringing justice to the ill fated young man who came to this country with such high dreams. "The Auerbach Dynasty," a play based on Dooley's 25-year friendship with Red Auerbach, the late coach and president of the Boston Celtics, will open at the Park Theatre in the spring of 2011.
