Photo Coverage: Bermuda Avenue Triangle Opening Night in LA

Renée Taylor, Joe Bologna and Lainie Kazan opened in the off-Broadway hit play Bermuda Avenue Triangle, written and directed by Taylor and Bologna, at the Brentwood Theatre in Los Angeles on Friday, June 2. The show, which is being billed as Broadway-bound, plays until June 25.

Manny Kleinmuntz and Rita McKenzie are also in the cast of the show, which is directed by Bologna and Taylor. The married couple has been married for over 40 years. If you ever leave me...I'm going with you, It Had to Be You, and Lovers and Other Strangers are among previous collaborations. The original Los Angeles production of Bermuda played nine sold out months in Los Angeles - first at the Tiffany Theatre and then at the Canon Theatre. Sixty-four thousand theatre-goers saw the production, which then transferred to New York for a successful Off-Broadway run. The show is produced by Scott Stander & Associates, Inc., in association with Taylor/Bologna Productions, Inc. and is presented at the Brentwood Theatre by RICHMARK Entertainment.

"Bermuda Avenue Triangle tells the tale of two widows (Taylor and Kazan) set up in a Las Vegas retirement condo by their daughters. They think life has passed them by, until they both meet and fall in love and lust with a charming swindler (Bologna) who helps them realize 'you're never too old to do what you think you're too old to do,'" according to press notes.
