Neil Simon’s Rumors

Reality was just rehearsal. When four couples gather for a party in a wealthy New York suburb, they expect champagne, revelry, and a night of good fun. Instead, they find their host in an alarming state, his wife missing, and the police on their way. Talk about a dinner party from hell!

Written by the sharpest tongue in comedy and starring a cast of the sharpest tongues on television, this vibrant new production of Neil Simon’s Rumors from the visionary mind of Zhailon Levingston (Tony Award winner for Cats: The Jellicle Ball) stars two casts featuring some of the most iconic “Real Housewives” of all time. Welcome to the party. Now let the rumors fly.

The production will feature two separate casts of “Housewives” including Lisa Rinna as ‘Chris,’ Phaedra Parks as ‘Claire,’ Stacey Rusch as ‘Cookie,’ and Dolores Catania as ‘Cassie’ January 9-February 28, followed by Cynthia Bailey as ‘Chris,’ Eileen Davidson as ‘Claire,’ Carole Radziwill as ‘Cookie,’ and Candiace Dillard-Bassett as ‘Cassie’ March 2-April 21. The production will mark the New York stage debut of seven out of the eight women. Additional casting will be announced at a later date.
