VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE to Open 7/10 in Santa Paula

The Santa Paula Theater Center presents the Ventura County premiere of Christopher Durang's Tony Award winning comedy VANYA and SONIA and MASHA and SPIKE from July 10 through August 16 with performances on Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 pm and special summer matinee performances at 4 pm.

VANYA and SONIA and MASHA and SPIKE reveals the wildly funny dynamics occurring among the family of a self-absorbed movie star when she returns home to their Pennsylvania farmhouse with her 20-something "boy toy" in tow. Her revelations quickly turn a genial reunion into a hilarious and off kilter free for all. Winner of the 2013 Tony Award, New York Drama Critics' Circle Award, Drama League, and Drama Desk Award for Best Play, this production is not to be missed.
