Does anybody know if there are any plans to stage Tracey Letts' Bug in LA or San Francisco?
I am betting that the playwright is withholding rights of production until he gets an offer from a major equity house.
I wonder how long it will take for LA to see this play.... Paula Vogel's masterpiece "The Baltimore Waltz", for example, has NEVER been staged in the Los Angeles area. Ms. Vogel has refused time and time again to grant the LA premiere rights of production to small non-equity theatres.
