The Understudy, a play by Theresa Rebeck

An exploration of
the existential vagaries (and comedy) of show business and life
Stage
manager Roxanne is barely holding the show together with a stoned lightboard
operator, an omnipresent intercom system, and an understudy who happens to also
be her ex-fiancé. Can she save this show?
“…deliver[s] a clever indictment of contemporary theatre while making
the characters' personal circumstances ever more Kafkaesque: They are no more
in control of the forces of celebrity, art, money, and Broadway than they are
of their own fates." —The New Yorker


By Theresa Rebeck
