New York City
The new play is written by Alan Hruska.
Laugh It Up, Stare It Down, a new play written by Alan Hruska and directed by Chris Eigeman, will premiere at the Cherry Lane Theatre later this summer. The limited engagement begins performances August 26 and will open on September 9.
The play is described as "the story of Cleo and Joe, the meeting of their minds, the entwining of their hearts, and their life-long search for a meaningful point in a universe too random to have one. It's a journey marked by a missing baby, a forged painting, a house invader, a tidal wave, and frozen pistou. Will they rise above their outrageous fortune? Will they find ecstatic love?"
The cast of Laugh It Up, Stare It Down will be announced in the coming days. Laugh It Up, Stare It Down features scenic design by Kevin Judge, costume design by Jennifer Caprio, lighting design by Matthew J. Fick, and original music and sound design by Peter Salett.
