Pamela J. Gray and Jamison Jones will join the previously announced Steven Culp, Simon Helberg, and Jarrett Sleeper in Los Angeles Theatre Works’ presentation of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa’s Dr. Cerberus, to be presented July 14-18 as part of their “The Play’s The Thing” radio series at the Skirball Cultural Center.

Set in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., in the mid-1980s, the play is a coming-of-age story about a geeky, overweight teenager who finds comfort in the horror movies he watches every Saturday at midnight on a black-and-white TV set in his basement. The films are introduced by the enigmatic Doctor Cerberus, and the teen dreams of becoming the TV host’s assistant.
