In JB Reich's CUT THROAT, Amy (Sarah Sirota) and Ben (Eric Bryant) are happily married...until they decide to send their three-year-old son to Pre-K. Directed by Mark Waldrop (NEWSical), this world-premiere play examines the meaning of children, parenthood, marriage -- and New York private school admissions. As the couple navigate through the world of preschool options, they get help (and hindrance) from headmistress Gloria Kleinhoffer (Susan Cella), Ben's brother Henry (Adam LeBow), friends like Marty (Allen Lewis Rickman) and Tammy (Melissa Teitel), and others.

The production features set design by Brian Dudkiewicz; costume design by Orli Nativ; lighting design by Julie Duro; and sound design by Ian Wehrle. Production Stage Manager is Alexis Nalbandian. Actors are members of Actors Equity Association. CUT THROAT is an Equity Approved Showcase. Jan Buttram is Artistic Director of Abingdon Theatre Company, now in its 23rd Season of producing new plays.
