Moon Over Buffalo
6209 Santa Monica Blvd Hollywood
Moon Over Buffalo is a madcap comedy that centers on George and Charlotte Hay, fading stars of the 1950's. They are in Buffalo NY doing Private Lives and Cyrano De Bergerac in rep and on the verge on a disastrous split-up due to George's dalliance. But they learn Frank Capra is coming to see their show and may cast them in a remake of the Scarlet Pimpernel. It may be their last shot at stardom. Unfortunately, everything that could go wrong does, with the help of their daughter's clueless fiance and the uncertainly about which play they're actually performing, caused by Charlotte's deaf old stage-manager mother who hates every bone in George's body. This is the play that brought Carol Burnett back to Broadway after 30 years and is being directed by Bjorn Johnson who gave us Room Service last year, the hit of the Open Fist's 2011 season.
