Rebeck's new play rollicks with high comedy and human drama set against the lavish Shakespearean production that could make or break Sarah Bernhardt's career.

McTeer stars as Sarah Bernhardt, alongside Constant Coquelin and Jason Butler Harner as Edmond Rostand, with Matthew Saldivar as Alphonse Mucha, Nick Westrate as Maurice, Paxton Whitehead as Louis, Ito Aghayere as Rosamond, Brittany Bradford as Lysette, Aaron Costa Ganis as Raoul, and Triney Sandoval as Francois.
