I just found out that Paul Ben-Victor is part of a staged reading of Sin, a Cardinal Deposed. This is a play that apparently started March 5, but according to the theatre website has three more showings. The thing that’s tricky about this reading is that it has an alternating cast and I couldn’t find any cast information about upcoming shows, so you take your chances as to whether Paul is actually performing the night you attend.
Synopsis:
In Suffolk Superior Court, lawyer Orson Krieger treads a fine line between respect and contempt.
He relentlessly pursues answers from the elusive Cardinal Bernard Law, the Archbishop of Boston, for his failure to protect the victims of sexual abuse at the hands of priests in his archdiocese.
Every question, every answer, every word of this play was taken from two hearings and one trial.
All the characters are real.
A review of the staged reading can be found at Blog Critics Magazine.
The reading is held every Thursday at 8:00 p.m. at the Hayworth Theatre, and runs from Thursday, March 26, to Thursday, April 9. Tickets are normally $20, but this week’s performance is a special benefit for SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests) and the ticket price is $50.

This certainly does seem to be Paul Ben-Victor week, doesn’t it? So Paul had a brief appearance last week as studio executive Allen Grey in Entourage and he is back again this Sunday in the same role. HBO first airs the episode at 10:00 p.m. on Sunday, October 12, and repeats the episode throughout the week as usual.

I should have posted this a couple of months ago—shows how behind I am with my blogging—but, because this is a web series, you can view the episodes at your own leisure.
Coma is a gritty and highly stylized web series. Paul Ben-Victor plays the role of Zoli in it. Each episode is only four to seven minutes in length, including the credits; and I should warn you that there is some language. There are a total of seven episodes in this series.
To watch, click on the link below to go to the Crackle.com website. It will start on the first episode and automatically take you through each successive episode, except for the last two episodes. Those last two episodes have been switched, so you’ll need to choose episode six then seven (from the scrolling list on the right) if you want to watch the episodes in their proper order.
Paul Ben-Victor is going to be reprising his role of studio executive Allen Grey in tonight’s episode of Entourage. The episode is on HBO at 10:00 p.m. Pacific Time, but do check the schedule as HBO repeats episodes throughout the week.
This is very last minute, but those of us on the West Coast may still be able to catch this. Elaine has informed me that Paul Ben-Victor has a role in tonight’s episode of Everybody Hates Chris. It airs on the CW at 8:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Folks on Central Time might be able to catch it also, but do check your local listings for the correct channel and time.
If you miss it, you can also watch it online at the official Everybody Hates Chris website. It may take a day or so for it to get posted online.
Thanks, Elaine, for keeping your eyes open and helping to keep us informed!
