The Sherman Playhouse Presents THE SUPPORTING CAST 7/8-30

This summer The Sherman Playhouse is proud to present, THE SUPPORTING CAST, an uproarious comedy by George Furth.

In THE SUPPORTING CAST, the wife of a successful author has written her own book about friends who are spouses of celebrities and what it is like to be married to "somebody famous." She invites them to her house on the beach in Malibu to let them read advance copies and to break the news to them gently that the book holds nothing back. The whole bunch gets even more out of
control when they actually read the tell-all book to discover it truly does "tell all." But when the news arrives that the book has already been optioned to be made into a movie, they change their tune, brimming with excitement about which star will play them in the film.

THE SUPPORTING CAST is under the direction of John Taylor of Sherman.

THE SUPPORTING CAST features some of the region's finest actors: Sarah Saltus (Bethel), Jacky Saulnier (Danbury), Robyn Maitland (New Fairfield), Bruce Tredwell (Brewster, NY), and Laura Grasseler Flake (NewMilford).
