Lenore Skomal's new play The Exes takes the stage this December for a special industry reading prior to its Off Broadway run in spring of 2018. Self-made billionaire Richard and his best friend Dick were both married to the same woman: strong willed Mavis. When she drops in uninvited on Christmas Eve--the day of Richard's daughter's wedding--all hell breaks loose. Reminiscent of The Philadelphia Story, this bromantic comedy of love and breakups is alternately irreverent, ridiculous and tender-reminding audiences why marriage and divorce make for strange bedfellows.

Actress Leslie Lewis will star in her One-Woman play 'Miracle in Rwanda' Monday April 3rd at The New York Law School. The show is in support of the law schools 'Safe Passage Project'. The charity helps indigent children in Immigration Court.
