The Scene

Charlie, an out-of-work New York actor, is spiritually famished and morally adrift. When his wife discovers his affair with Clea, a fresh-faced ingénue just off the bus from Ohio, she takes comfort in the arms of Charlie’s best friend. A recent New York smash hit, Theresa Rebeck’s (Bad Dates) The Scene takes on the entertainment industry and the empty narcissism of celebrity culture with scathingly funny results.
