    4 Plays by Paul Rudnick, Directed by Paul Daigneault,  Jan. 16 - Feb. 14, 2009. 

    From the author of Jeffrey and The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told comes this hilarious collection of four short gay-themed comedies. A wealthy Jewish matron with at least three gay children, a flamboyant public access TV host and a Midwestern scrapbooker/competitive cake decorator each have their say, then meet, in this outrageous look at where society is headed in the new millennium. With: Emile Battle, Kerry A. Dowling, Paula Plum, Robert Saoud, and Bud Weber

    Running time: 90 minutes with no intermission. Recommended for mature audiences. Contains Nudity and Adult Language.

    "The one-liners fly like rockets in The New Century, and they hit their targets smoking..." -The New York Times

    "The funniest show in town!" -WOR Radio

    "The evening contains so many gut-busting one-liners that those with heart conditions are advised to steer clear..." -The New York Post

          I saw this last week - actually two times! The actors were great and their comedic timing was spot on. The stories were really touching, too. It's only about 90 minutes, so the action keeps going... Expand
