Written by Alana McNair and Kate Wilkinson, the play is directed by Timothy Haskell and clocks in at just over an hour.  Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy is a spoofy homage to the 1987 Oscar-nominated film that starred Glenn Close as the obsessive, spurned lover of Michael Douglas, whose role is taken up by Feldman in the play.  According to production notes, the show concerns "a big-time corporate lawyer [who] has a one-night stand with a no-nonsense business woman while his wife is away. When the corporate hag forgets her place, all heck breaks loose! The park, the opera, the bunny, and the tub ensue. Skewering the film's blatant fear of the successful business woman, and celebration of traditional family values, this Greek Tragedy adopts a chorus that comments on the action by using texts from the Greek tragedy oeuvre, as well as from turn of the century home etiquette propaganda."

Kellie Arens, Nick Arens, Ebony Cross, Aaron Haskell, Sergio Lobito, McNair and Wilkinson will also appear in the show with Rebeca Ramirez handling the dance choreography, Rod Kinter the fight choreography, Wendy Yang the costume design, Tyler Micoleau the lighting, Paul Smithyman the sets, Faye Armon the props, with Vincent Olivieri responsible for the sound design.

One of the highest-grossing teens stars of the 80's and a member of the so-called Brat Pack, Feldman has appeared in Goonies, The Lost Boys, Stand by Me, Dream a Little Dream, License to Drive, The 'burbs, Bordello of Blood, and more.  On TV, he has been seen on "The Bad News Bears" and on "The Surreal Life."

The East 13th Street Theatre is located at 136 East 13th Street between Third and Fourth Avenues, just southeast of Union Square.

Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy's performance schedule is Tuesday-Saturday evenings at 8 PM, with additional performances Fridays and Saturdays at 10:30 PM and Sundays at 6 PM. Tickets, which are $40 and $49.50, are available by calling (212) 279-4200 or by visiting www.ticketcentral.com.
