Photo Flash: Rhea Perlman Cheers the Cast of JONAH AND OTTO Off-Broadway
JONAH AND OTTO, by celebrated UK playwright Robert Holman, opened on February 8th to rave reviews and the limited engagement is set to run through this Saturday evening, February 25th at The Lion Theatre at Theatre Row, 410 West 42 Street.
Under the direction of Geraldine Hughes, JONAH AND OTTO stars Sean Gormley (ARISTOCRATS, THE DEVIL'S DISCIPLE, "Person of Interest," "Treme") and Rupert Simonian ("Foyle's War," "Ashes to Ashes," "Murdoch Mysteries," THE CONSTANT GARDNER).
In 2003, Jonah is 26, Otto, 57 - two men different in every way. But not everything is what it seems when their two lives collide one summer's night in a mysterious walled garden on the south coast of England. As their stories of love and loss unravel in front of us and memories of the past unturned come to light, on parting, neither can be the same again. Robert Holman's "intricately layered creation, brimming with emotional wonder" (The Independent) is a deeply humane, funny and ultimately haunting exploration of what it is to be alive.
