Room Service at Bank Street Theater
The Peccadillo Theater Company presents Room Service, by John Murray and Allen Boretz, opening at the Soho Playhouse on 28 Nov 2006, following previews from 18 Nov and running through to 07 Jan 2007.
This marks the return of Peccadillo Theater Company's production, the comedy had an earlier run this year at the Bank Street Theater.
A classic door-slamming farce, Room Service centers around a theatrical producer of questionable morals, holed up in a Times Square hotel with nineteen starving actors who attempts to rehearse and find a backer for his new show. Hoping to forestall eviction, he convinces the show�s gullible young playwright to fake his own death.
Meanwhile, an emissary from one of the country�s wealthiest businessmen turns up, offering to invest in the show; that is, until he discovers the hotel doctor bound and gagged in the bathroom. The situation goes from bad to worse as the bill-collecting manager of the hotel threatens to have the entire show confiscated by the sheriff on opening night!
Room Service features David Edwards, Fred Berman, Dale Carman, Sterling Coyne, Scott Evans, Blythe Gruda, Robert O�Gorman and Kim Rachelle Harris.
Set design is by Chris Jones, with costumes by Gail Cooper-Hecht and lighting by Jeffrey Salzberg.
