Taylor and Burton, Olivier and Leigh...Fennington and Haverly. After an acrimonious divorce, can a famous, high-maintenance acting couple work together again twenty years later? Rita Rudner stars as revered actress Fenella Fennington, with Mike McShane ("Whose Line Is It Anyway?," Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves) starring as her ex-husband Jarvis Haverly, in this delightful world premiere comedy. STAGED is the fourth new play that Martin Bergman and Rita Rudner have brought to the Laguna Playhouse. Their last Playhouse production, Two's A Crowd, transferred to New York and enjoyed a successful run Off-Broadway.
