In 1661, when only men played women on England's theater stages, Edward Kynaston reigned supreme as London's most celebrated leading lady. But when actress Margaret Hughes persuades King Charles II to allow actual females to take the stage, the king's own courtesan, Nell Gwynn, and Kynaston's former dresser, Maria, become stars while Kynaston's career may be cut short -- spurring him down a path of revenge and reinvention. Jeffrey Hatcher's hilarious, yet poignant play was also adapted into the film Stage Beauty with Billy Crudup and Claire Danes. Learn More

Really enjoyed watching these two and their miserable stories but boy, I sure wouldn't want to follow much more of the story to see the next time one of them went off...can't imagine it'd last. Great conviction, superb acting, worth a see.Written on Nov 05 2011

I do to a lot of theater - both large and small venues. I personaly like productions done in small venues and this one was excellent. The writing, acting, and direction were all right on. During the production you grow to like two pretty unlikeable characters and you think to yourself - I'd like to see the next chapter in their lives. The theater was comfortable, the seats roomy, and the staff friendly and helpful. I have recommended this to my theater-going friends and plan to see the show (again) with them.Written on Oct 20 2011

Description
The play revolves around the dilapidated lives of Danny and Roberta, two tortured strangers who meet by chance at a dive bar in the Bronx. Danny, an emotionally unstable, street brawling truck driver, and Roberta, a self-loathing, troubled woman, collide in a morbidly humorous, violent and vulgar fairy tale about a frightening and ultimately fascinating relationship.
Shanley describes this play as an Apache dance. Shanley dedicates the play to, “everyone in the Bronx who punched me or kissed me, and to everyone whom I punched or kissed.”
This play is not recommended for audience members younger than 15.
