The Understudy

March 2 - 25, 2017

A Comedy by Theresa Rebeck

Charged with running the understudy rehearsal for a Braodway production, Roxanne finds her professional and personal life colliding when Harry, a journeyman actor and her ex-fiance, is cast as the understudy to Jake, a mid-tier action star yearning for legitmacy. As Harry and Jake find their common ground, Roxanne tries to navigate the rehearsal with a stoned lightboard operator and her woen creening feelings about both actors and her past. Will the show go on? The Understudy is a dazzling and humanitstic look at people trying to do what they love in the face of mounting obstacles until all anyone can do is dance. Comedy.
