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.

The revival script includes significant rewrites to the original text, as well as hilarious songs freshly scribed by Guare himself.

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