Photo Flash: Jeff Goldblum, Theresa Rebeck and More at SEMINAR Opening Night in LA

In “Seminar,” four aspiring young writers sign up for private writing classes with Leonard (played by Jeff Goldblum), an international literary figure. Under his recklessly brilliant and unorthodox instruction, some thrive and others flounder, alliances are made and broken, sex is used as a weapon and hearts are unmoored. The wordplay is not the only thing that turns vicious as innocence collides with experience in this provocative new comedy.

Center Theatre Group/Ahmanson Theatre is located at the Music Center, 135 N. Grand Avenue in Downtown Los Angeles. Tickets, scheduling and more information can be found at www.CenterTheatreGroup.org.
