American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.) continues its 2008-09 season with John Guare's Rich & Famous, directed by John Rando (Urinetown, The Musical and Wedding Singer on Broadway) in its first major revival since its 1976 New York debut.

But on opening night, he slips into a nightmarish phantasmagoria that shows him just how wrong things can go.
