About the Show -----
The Village Repertory Co., in collaboration with Threshold Repertory Theatre, presents the East Coast premiere of Paul Slade Smith's The Angel Next Door.
It's 1946 in a ritzy Newport mansion populated by playwrights, actors, a young star-struck novelist and the housekeeper who would like all of them to leave. When their weekend getaway goes horribly awry only a play within a play can save the day. A screwball comedy that's in love with theater about people in love with theater, who know that, sometimes, even reality needs a re-write to reach a happy ending.
This delightful new comedy features an all-star Charleston cast : Liz Butler, Don Brandenburg, Tara Holwegner, Lara Allred Swallen, Paul O'Brien and Anthony Matrejek
"...a glittering, effervescent hit romantic comedy. It’s an elegant, sweet-dry glass of champagne, bubbling over with non-stop laughs, merriment, glamor, and high-spirited hijinks. It’s hard to think of more fun you could have at the theatre right now, or really, more fun anywhere.” —BroadwayWorld.
“Capturing the sheer joy, sophistication, and wit of those early screwball comedies, playwright Smith has cheekily and efficiently modernized most of the lines and patter for clearer audience sensibilities.” —The Show Report.
