In this Pulitzer and Tony-nominated comedy by Craig Lucas, a whirlwind romance and marriage takes a startling turn when an mysterious old man congratulates the bride with a kiss. With this kiss, Rita (the bride) and the man have what could be described as a Twilight Zone moment that sends Rita and her would-be husband on a mysterious journey, as they test the true strength of their love, beyond the surface connections that first drew them to one another. Prelude to a Kiss was commissioned and originally staged by South Coast Repertory in January 1988. The play later went on to Broadway and was made into a feature film starring Alec Baldwin and Meg Ryan. Staged Cinema Productions' performance of the play is directed by David Chorley. Learn More

Thought the three guys doing the performance were outstanding. Very funny! I know next to nothing about Shakespeare, but now I know a little. Maybe a little skewed though.Written on Sep 29 2008

I saw this show four years ago when the Maverick was located in The Block at Orange. LOVED IT!Written on Sep 22 2008
Despite an interesting set and good actors, this production needed a major shot of adrenalin. The performances were energetic, but not the breakneck speed that the script demands. I was very disappointed. However, those seated around me seemed to be enjoying themselves.

Description
By popular demand The Maverick is bringing back for the four time The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged). Theater-goers will once again enjoy a tumultuous rollercoaster tribute to the immortal bard, Shakespeare. As three actors take on the overwhelming task of performing 37 plays and 154 sonnets in under two hours, illuminating the world of Shakespeare through a unique blend of madcap humor that includes everything from puns and pratfalls to elaborate sight gags of football, swordplay and hip-hop music. Irreverent and hilarious, this comedy sensation keeps delighting audiences and critics.
The entire show is staged in front of a two story tall William Shakespeare head. Performed on the Maverick’s Cabaret Stage; audiences will find themselves knee deep in all the action.
