UNSUSPECTING SUSAN - Brits Off Broadway

This solo performance play stars Celia Imrie, British star of the West End, films and television.

Written by: Stewart Permutt
Directed by: Lisa Forrell (also directed TABLOID CALIGULA)

It opens tomorrow, Sunday, and is well worth seeing.

I won't say more at this time except TO try for tickets.

See the review in today's NY Times.


"...funny, engaging (mostly) and tragic one-act one-character show...Mr. Permutt [the playwright] smoothly wraps exposition inside Ms. Imrie's chatty monologues...Ms. Imie, probably best known to American audiences fo rher role in the two 'Bridget Jones' movies, has managed to make Susan likeable (aided by the savvy director of Lisa Forrell). But 'Unsuspecting Susan' is less about hatred than about people trying to find their way. (And hatred just happens to be one path)..."
