AUDITION FOR Theatrical Tendencies!

Theatrical Tendencies is holding AUDITIONS for 

REGRETS ONLY by Paul Rudnick

Directed by Mark E. Schuster

From the author of I HATE HAMLET and JEFFREY comes this comedy of Manhattan manners that explores the latest topics in marriage, friendships and squandered riches.  The setting: a Park Avenue penthouse.  The players: a powerhouse attorney, his deliriously social wife and their closest friend, one of the world's most staggeringly successful fashion designers.  Add in a daughter's engagement, the 5 times divorced grandmother of the soon-to-be bride, a wacky maid who doesn’t like to clean, the president of the United States, and stir.

“A devastatingly accurate political and social satire.“ —Backstage. 

“Hilariously witty…Rudnick's script is ripe with jokes at the expense of the upper class—taking pokes at plastic surgery, designer fashion and charity functions.“ —Show Business Weekly.

“Paul Rudnick, ever the stylish and witty playwright, pressed foot to pedal on his imaginative overdrive to see how far it would take him into his new comedy and it seems to have taken him into an elegant terrain.” —Playbill.
