Watch clips from Dan Rothenberg and Colleen Crabtree’s new comedy.
Hot Mess, a new romantic comedy by Dan Rothenberg and Colleen Crabtree, and directed by Jonathan Silverstein, has released production photos and video. The production is now running at the Jerry Orbach Theater at the Theater Center and is set to open November 16. Jay Alix and Una Jackman are producing.
The cast of Hot Mess includes Max Crumm (Disaster!) as Max, Lucy DeVito (It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia) as Elanor, and Paul Molnar (Alphabetical Order) as Lewis, Steve, Jason, Therapist, and Tow Truck Guy.
The play is described as follows: "Angst-ridden Max and mildly unstable Elanor are soulmates. They have revealed every crazy and embarrassing quirk to each other, which has only brought them closer. However, there is one issue that Max is holding on to. Elanor has discussed her ex-boyfriends with Max. Max hasn't quite mentioned his. Hot Mess proves that sometimes in order to find yourself, you have to get lost."
The creative team includes scenic design by Tobin Ost, costume design by Bobby Frederick Tilley, lighting design by Matthew Richards, and sound design by Bart Fasbender.
