The Broadway revival of Alan Ayckbourn's Absurd Person Singular opened on October 19th at the Biltmore Theatre (261 W. 47th St). A Manhattan Theatre Club production, Absurd Person Singular stars Mireille Enos (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?) as Eva, Clea Lewis (Fuddy Meers) as Jane, Alan Ruck (The Producers) as Sidney, Deborah Rush (Noises Off) as Marion, Sam Robards (The Man Who Had All the Luck) as Geoffrey and Paxton Whitehead (My Fair Lady, Lettice and Lovage) as Ronald.
Directed by John Tillinger (Judgement at Nuremberg, Night Must Fall), the show centers on "three couples, three kitchens, three successive Christmas Eves: welcome to the world of Alan Ayckbourn's comedy about social class and splendid cocktails," state the show's production notes.
