First a Broadway hit, then a blockbuster movie, CACTUS FLOWER returns to the stage funnier than ever before! This hilarious romantic comedy follows Julian Winston (Caulfield), a handsome, middle-aged Park Avenue dentist and bachelor, who, to dodge commitment, tells his much younger girlfriend Toni (Barber) that he is married. When Toni demands to meet his wife he recruits his prickly nurse (Robbins) to play the part and love blossoms in the most unexpected places! Upstairs (407 West 43 Street, NYC).

CACTUS FLOWER premiered on Broadway in December 1965, where it was one of the biggest hits of the decade, playing 1234 performances and starred Lauren Bacall. It was then made into a blockbuster movie, directed by Gene Zaks, which introduced Goldie Hawn and also starred Walter Matthau and Ingrid Bergman. This production marks the first major revival of this fast-paced comedy.

The creative team for CACTUS FLOWER includes Anna Louizos (Scenic Design), Philip Rosenberg (Lighting Design), Karen Ann Ledger (Costume Design) and Brad Berridge (Sound Design).

CACTUS FLOWER is produced Off Broadway by Daryl Roth Productions and Stonemill Productions. (Lighting Design),
