New York City
When Dan convinces Eric, to audition for their high school’s production of Romeo and Juliet, their destinies become inextricably linked forever. The two friends move to New York to pursue their common goal; to "make it" as an actor. When Eric lands a role on a television show, Dan is consumed by jealousy, but when Eric becomes a bona fide movie star, Dan is driven over the edge. This ever-changing dynamic in their relationship is the basis for Nemesis, a hilarious new play by Michael Buckley. Nemesis is not simply a play about "the business" but an exploration of competition, friendship and the American definition of success. To learn more, visit: www.nemesistheplay.com
