The Off-Broadway revival of Abe Burrows’ Cactus Flower will end its engagement at the Westside Theatre Upstairs following the Sunday, April 24 performance. As of that date, it will have played 17 preview performances and 52 regular performances.

Michael Bush has directed the production, which stars Maxwell Caulfield, Lois Robbins, Jenni Barber, Jeremy Bobb, John Herrera, Anthony Reimer, Robin Skye, and Emily Walton.

The play follows Julian Winston (Caulfield), a handsome, middle-aged Park Avenue dentist and bachelor, who, to dodge commitment, tells his much younger girlfriend Toni (Barber) that he is married. When Toni demands to meet his wife he recruits his prickly nurse (Robbins) to play the part.

The creative team includes Anna Louizos (scenic design), Philip Rosenberg (lighting design), Karen Ann Ledger (costume design), and Brad Berridge (sound design).
