SRO Theatre Stages Neil Simon's LAUGHTER ON THE 23RD FLOOR, Now thru 4/21
SRO Theatre Company presents Laughter on the 23rd Floor by Neil Simon to be staged tonight, April 12 - 21, 2013, at the Van Fleet Theatre in the Columbus Performing Arts Center, 549 Franklin Avenue, Columbus, OH.
Chaos rules and zingers fly in this comedy focusing on the star and writing staff of a fictional 1950s comedy-variety TV series as everyone copes with falling ratings, life stress, and one another. This comedy was inspired by Neil Simon's early experience as a staff writer for Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows.
Laughter on the 23rd Floor is directed by Janetta Davis, a member of Actors' Equity and an experienced director who has been involved with professional and collegiate theatre since 1979.
In this ensemble cast are DonoVan Johnson (Max Prince), Kyle Snyder (Lucas Brickman), Mark Passerrello (Milt Fields), Aleksandar Bulajic (Val Slotsky), Jason David Collins (Brian Doyle), Roddey Nagy (Kenny Franks), Keely M. Kurtas-Chapman (Carol Wyman), Joel B. Cohen (Ira Stone), and Katharine Pilcher (Helen).
Showtimes for Laughter on the 23rd Floor are 8 p.m. Friday, April 12; 8 p.m., Saturday, April 13; 2 p.m. Sunday, April 14; and 8 p.m., Friday, April 19; 8 p.m. Saturday, April 20; and 2 p.m. Sunday, April 21.
