Rob Morrow and Marcia Cross Star in Jon Robin Baitz's Emotional Drama
Isaac, a Holocaust survivor who arrived in New York City as an orphan, has reinvented himself by building a thriving publishing empire. Known for championing passionate authors, his life's work faces upheaval after a personal tragedy. As his children push for a commercial hit to save the company, Isaac's unwavering dedication to a controversial project tests family bonds, and his legacy. Will he stand by his convictions, or fold to the lure of commercial success?
“Characterized by intelligence, wit, and emotional depth, Jon Robin Baitz’s play is timeless in its exploration of corporate and family dynamics, as well as personal identity, says Mike Reilly. What better opportunity for a director, than to work on a well written play with brilliant players like the great Rob Morrow and Marcia Cross?”
Directed by Mike Reilly, Jon Robin Baitz's "The Substance of Fire" stars Rob Morrow and Marcia Cross, along with Emmitt Butler, Fiona Dorn, and Barret T. Lewis.
Ruskin Group Theatre is at 3000 Airport Avenue, Santa Monica, CA.
