DIVAfest presents HILARITY, a new play by Allison Page, directed by Claire Rice, running at EXIT Studio, 156 Eddy St, SF, tonight, March 5 - March 28, 2015 (Previews March 5 & 6, Opening March 7). BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at Page below!
HILARITY is a new play about a girl named Cyd. She's not so nice. She's not so sober. She's not so happy. But she is funny. Cyd is a comic on the edge of destruction. Liz is the only person keeping her from pickling herself to death. She has an agent who's afraid of confrontation. She has a mother who likes men on motorcycles. She has a mattress in the middle of the room, and that's it. Maybe she'll turn it all around, or maybe her drunken lies, hungover manipulations and impulsive violence will finally bury her. What does it matter how good you are at something, if you don't know how to be a person? Also featuring Marie O'Donnell, Heather Kellogg, Jennie Brick, Jason Pienkowski. Assistant directed by Sam Bertken. Lighting Design by Beth Cockrell. Fight Choreography by Jon Bailey. Stage Managed by Linda Huang. Production Managed by Teresa Hernandez.Find out more about HILARITY at: http://www.theexit.org/divafest/2014/12/15/hilarity/#more-1613.
