Feiffer & Green in South Ark's 'None of the Above,' 9/25

The newly formed South Ark Stage Company presents the Off-Broadway premiere of Jenny Lyn Bader's play None of the Above.  Previews begin September 25, opening October 10 at Theatre Row's Lion Theatre (410 West 42nd Street) in Manhattan.

Directed by Julie Kramer and starring Halley Feiffer and Adam Green, "None of the Above is Jenny Lyn Bader's comedy about privilege, addiction, transcending stereotypes…and getting into Princeton. What happens when a high-priced SAT tutor is hired to coach a spoiled Upper East Side girl? When both of their futures depend on her success, will she surprise everyone and rise to the occasion or will she fail to make the grade?" describe press notes.

The design team for None of the Above is Lauren Helpern (set); Graham Kindred (lighting); Melissa Schlachtmeyer (costume); and Jill DuBoff (sound).
