Set in the 1950’s, two stars are performing Private Lives and Cyrano De Bergerac in a repertory theater in Buffalo, New York, with five other actors. On the brink of a disastrous split-up, they receive word that they might have one last shot at stardom. Frank Capra is coming to town to see their matinee, and if he likes what he sees, he might cast them in his movie. Unfortunately for the stars, everything that can go wrong does go wrong.

Performances are Thursdays through Saturday’s at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday’s at 2:00 p.m. through April 21st. Tickets are $17 for adults, and $12 for children ages 12 and under. They can be obtained by calling UACT at 673-2125, purchasing them at the door, or going to: www.uact-theatre-com
