WILTSIE BRIDGE PRODUCTIONS and OFF THE LEASH PRODUCTIONS are pleased to announce the return production of CYCLE directed by Craig Carlisle. CYCLE plays a special engagement as part of the New York International Fringe Festival, at the Deluxe at Spiegelworld (Pier 17, South Street Seaport, 89 South Street at Beekman.)

A desperate New Yorker has one day to discover the Secret Of Success in this "genial, bizarre blend of Frank Capra, Pirandello, and Neil Simon...hilarious!" (BackStage) "CYCLE is a winning combination of heart and wit." (ShowBusiness Weekly)

On a journey by bicycle into the heart of NYC, Charlotte Shrubsole has one day to discover the Secret Of Success. Guided by a troupe of heaven-sent Vaudevillians, she's drawn into a whirlwind of song, dance, music and comedy that takes her on a ride beyond her wildest dreams. This modern twist on old-time entertainment delivers inventive riffs on historic drama, infectious humor, and beautiful classic songs.

The production stars Rose Courtney (Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival) as Charlotte, J.T. Arbogast (National Comedy Theatre) as Lenny, Krista Braun as Fran, Danielle Cautela ("The Sopranos") as Betty, Michael E. Lopez as Morris, Halley Zien (FringeNYC Debut!) as Violet, and Eric Zuckerman (Baby Mama & HBO's "John Adams") as William.

The production features music direction by Rachel A. Kaufman, who will also accompany the performances on piano, accordion, guitar, flute, bell, slide whistle and recorder.

The costume design is by Karen Flood (Original Urinetown), lighting design by Lisa Weinshrott and Michael Kimmel ("Young Designer to Watch" in the February issue of Live Design Magazine) and choreography by Laura Sheehy (Cabaret). Amy Cavenaugh is the production stage manager.
