The month of April brings more guest stars to the hilarious Off-Broadway Van Zandt & Milmore comedy hit, "You've Got Hate Mail," as award-winning actress Julia Duffy performs in the relentlessly funny tale of cyberspace lies, sex, and emails on Friday April 22. Curtain time is 7:00 p.m. at The Triad, 158 West 72nd Street, NYC.

Ms. Duffy has starred in a number of television series, most notably in "Newhart," and "Designing Women" as well as featured performances in mini-series, TV movies and film. Her stage work includes roles in Broadway, regional, and west coast productions, most recently as Birdie in "The Little Foxes," and Barbara in "Boom" both at The Pasadena Playhouse.

Hailed by print and web critics alike, ("The perfect bedroom farce...expertly directed...riotously enacted by a five-person ensemble!" -NY Post) ("It doesn't get better than this!" -Show Business Weekly) ("A rapid-paced romp with a millennium twist! Hilarious!" -Curtainup.com) ("HILARIOUS! RIOTOUS! -CultureCatch.com) "You've Got Hate Mail" is Van Zandt & Milmore's comic answer to A.R. Gurney's "Love Letters."

Love 'bytes' all when an extra-marital affair goes horribly wrong, after a juicy email is sent in error. The story is told entirely in emails from laptop computers, although the play still manages to have an unforgettable chase scene thanks to Blackberries and iPhones. Starring along with Duffy are ensemble cast regulars Glenn Jones, Barbara Bonilla, co-author Billy Van Zandt, and Fran Solgan.

Mr. Van Zandt and Jane Milmore are the authors of 23 plays published worldwide with Samuel French and translated into multiple languages around the globe. Van Zandt's solo play "The Property Known As Garland" broke house records at The Actor's Playhouse in its initial Off-Broadway run.

"You've Got Hate Mail" performs weekly, with a curtain time of 7:00 p.m. every Friday at The Triad Theatre, a two-drink minimum/cash-only venue. Tickets for the April 22 performance with guest star Julia Duffy are available on-line at www.smarttix.com or by calling (212) 868-4444.
