Publisher Description

Henry may be the wittiest playwright of his generation, but he’s hopelessly naïve when it comes to understanding love and infidelity. Writing about betrayal is one thing, living with it is another. After Henry leaves his wife for another woman, he’s confronted with being the cuckold himself. Both dazzlingly clever and emotionally naked, Henry’s search for the “the real thing” in art and love demonstrates beautifully why both are worth the effort in the end. Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at the Skirball Cultural Center in November 2008. Directed by Rosalind Ayres Producing Director Susan Albert Loewenberg An L.A. Theatre Works Full-Cast Performance Featuring: Andrea Bowen as Debbie Matthew Gaydos as Brodie and TV Director Carolyn Seymour as Charlotte Simon Templeman as Henry Douglas Weston as Max Joanne Whalley as Annie Matthew Wolf as Billy Associate Producers: Jennifer Brooks and Christina Montaño Recording Engineer/Sound Designer/Editor/Mixer: Mark Holden for The Invisible Studios, West Hollywood Sound Effects Artist: Theresa Arrison Music Supervisor: Scott Willis
