Photo Flash: LOVE CHILD At New World Stages

By:

Martin Hummel (Producer), in association withPrimary Stages (Casey Childs, Executive Producer; Andrew Leynse, Artistic Director; Elliot Fox, Managing Director) and The StoryLine Project LLC (R.K. Greene, Executive Director), presents the Off-Broadway transfer of the madcap comedy, Love Child, written and performed by Daniel Jenkins and Robert Stanton with directionby Carl Forsman and choreography by Tracy Bersley.

The zany comedy received its New York premiere at Primary Stages in the fall of 2008 where it garnered rave reviews.Now's your chance to see it. Performances began October 23, 2009 for a limitedengagement through Sunday, January 3, 2010 at New World Stages (340 West 50 th Street).

Opening night is Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 9:00 p.m.In Love Child, it's opening night.

The cast is unruly, the crowd is restless, and the play isobscure, but Joel has a larger worry: his mother is in the front row. Real and theatricalworlds collide in this new comedy about the night a classic play spoke so loudly to itsaudience that they felt compelled to talk back. Daniel Jenkins and Robert Stanton take you on a wild ride when they portray everyone on stage, backstage and in the house, all comingtogether on one riotous night in the theater.

The Off-Broadway transfer reunites the creative team that includes Neil Patel (Set), KyleLaColla (Costumes), Jeff Croiter & Grant Yeager (Lights) and Will Pickens(Sound). The Production Stage Manager is Joanne E. McInerney and the General Manager is CESA Entertainment.
