Neil Simon's Rumors at City Theater Sept 29- Oct 23
Can you keep a secret? Come join Neil Simon's crazy cast of characters at the townhouse of the New York City deputy mayor and his wife to celebrate their tenth wedding anniversary. The only catch is that the host has shot himself in the head (it’s only a flesh wound) and his wife is missing! Their friends attempt to cover up the situation, but the cover-up gets crazier and harder to sustain as more guests arrive and no one remembers who has told what to whom.
Audiences will be delighted by the hilarity as Simon excels in presenting the frustrations and fun of life with delicious humor. "Broadway has something to cheer about again." – New York Post.Featuring an all-star cast including Michelle Cheney, Jonathan Urso, Wendy Zavaleta, Scot Friedman, Melinda Peinado, Tony Salinas, Rachel McGinnis, Daniel Sawtelle, Lindsay McKenna and Bobby DiPasquale. Directed by Andy Berkovsky.
September 29 - October 23, Thurs - Sat 8:00 p.m., Sun 5:30 p.m.
The City Theatre, 3823 Airport Blvd. Suite D. 78722 - east corner of Airport Blvd. and 38 1/2 Street.
For reservations, call 512-524-2870 or e-mail info@citytheatreaustin.org. $15 - $20. Front Row Reserved $25. Thursday all seats $10. Group and student discounts.
