Billy Van Zandt & Jane Milmore ("Silent Laughter," "Love, Sex, and the I.R.S.," "A Night at the Nutcracker") will appear at the Brookdale Performing Arts Center, Lincroft, NJ, on May 28 & 29 in their e-mail comedy "You've Got Hate Mail."
"You've Got Hate Mail" is Van Zandt & Milmore's comic answer to A.R. Gurney's "Love Letters." Love "bytes" all when an extra-marital affair goes horribly wrong, thanks to a juicy e-mail left sitting on a desktop. The story is told entirely in e-mails from laptop computers, although the play does manage to have an unforgettable chase scene - thanks to Blackberries and iPhones. "The heartiest laugh-for-laugh show of all the Van Zandt-Milmore comedies." Asbury Park Press.
Van Zandt & Milmore are the authors of 23 plays published worldwide with Samuel French and translated into multiple languages around the globe. Van Zandt's solo play "The Property Known as Garland," which starred Adrienne Barbeau as Judy Garland, broke house records at the Actor's Playhouse in its initial Off-Broadway run. Their television and film projects have brought them Emmy nominations, People's Choice Awards and NAACP Image Awards for their writing and producing on "I Love Lucy: The Very First Show," "Martin" and "The Hughleys."
This production, directed by Gary Shaffer ("High School Reunion: The Musical") co-stars Glenn Jones, Barbara Bonilla, and Fran Solgan, and is produced by Noel Kubel and Jack Ryan. The play moves Off-Broadway later this year.
