Secrets, seduction and betrayal take center stage in the World Premiere of ANAIS: an Erotic Evening with Anais Nin, written and directed by Michael Phillips, produced by Larry Minion, and starring Sonia Maslovskaya. The play runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, September 10 through October 16, at the Sherry Theatre located in the NoHo Arts District of North Hollywood.

Anais Nin lived a very public life. But one weekend in the early 1950's, while Anaïs was living in Los Angeles, she secretly traveled to Arizona. No one, not even her closest of friends, ever knew why she went there.

The play takes place on that missing weekend, at a mental institution, where June Miller (wife of the legendary author, Henry Miller) is a patient after attempting suicide. Anaïs, through conversations with June, a doctor and Henry, the Henry Miller she knew in the early 1930's, tries to work out why June asked for her and no one else. Anais also questions how she feels about Henry and how she feels about June, and if June is still in love with her. It is an emotional, shattering journey of secrets, seduction and betrayal.
