Daytime Emmy Award-winning actress Khrystyne Haje (Simone on "Head of the Class") guest stars in off-Broadway's "You've Got Hate Mail" on Friday, June 24. The Van Zandt and Milmore comedy -- which takes a hilarious look sexting, lies and laptops -- plays Fridays at 7 p.m. at the Triad Theatre, 158 West 72nd Street, NYC.
Haje, a former teen model whose long flowing red hair and classic features led her to be chosen by People Magazine as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the world (1990), is best known as Simone, the resident poet on the 80s television comedy "Head of the Class." In addition to commercial work, her most recent television credits include dramatic turns on "Law & Order," "Law & Order SVU" and "Medium."
Hailed by critics ("The perfect bedroom farce...expertly directed...riotously enacted by a five-person ensemble!" -NY Post) ("It doesn't get better than this!" -Show Business) ("A rapid-paced romp with a millennium twist! Hilarious!" -Curtainup.com), "You've Got Hate Mail" is Van Zandt and Milmore's comic answer to A.R. Gurney's "Love Letters."
Love ‘bytes' all when an extra-marital affair goes horribly wrong, after a juicy email is sent in error. The story is told entirely in emails from laptop computers, although the play still manages to have an unforgettable chase scene thanks to Blackberries and iPhones. Starring along with guest Khrystyne Haje are ensemble cast regulars Glenn Jones, Barbara Bonilla, co-author Billy Van Zandt, and Fran Solgan.
Billy Van Zandt and Jane 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" broke house records at The Actor's Playhouse in its initial Off-Broadway run.
