Remy Auberjonois, Justin Bartha, and Camille Mana will join the previously reported Jesse Eisenberg in the world premiere of Eisenberg’s Asuncion, presented by Rattlestick Playwrights Theater at The Cherry Lane Theatre, October 12-November 27, with an opening on October 27. Kip Fagan will direct.

The play takes a look at two young men’s attempts to demonstrate their open-mindedness, as a young Filipina woman becomes their new roommate.

Eisenberg is perhaps best known for his Academy Award-nominated performance in The Social Network, with previous stage acting credits including Orphans and Scarcity.

Auberjonois has numerous theater credits, including the Broadway productions of The Country Girl and Frost/Nixon. Bartha is currently starring in All New People at Second Stage, and made his Broadway debut in the recent revival of Lend Me a Tenor. His myriad film credits include starring in The Hangover and its sequel, The Hangover II. Mana’s film credits include Smart People, College, Why Am I Doing This, Speed-Dating and The Samurai of Strongsville.
