A reading of Otherwise Engaged, by Simon Gray, is presented as part of WSC's Best of the Brits: Contemporary Playwrights Series. Michael Dove directs a cast featuring Christopher Davenport, Jay Hardee, Christopher Henley, Ghillian Porter, and Bruce Alan Rauscher.

Christopher Henley plays Simon Hench, a sophisticated, urbane and selfish publisher who wants nothing more than to go home to his luxuriant abode and listen to his new recording of Wagner's Parsifal. Like all good egocentric publishers, he tries to keep his family and friends at arms length. They, on the other hand, have other ideas, and turn up one by one as Hench's life finally catches up with him.
