  • Younger: When Lies Lead to More Lies
    Younger: When Lies Lead to More Lies THE CON: Recently divorced single mom Liza Miller (Sutton Foster) has to start over at the age of 40, but finds it’s nearly impossible to get a job in publishing at her age. When a cute guy at a bar mistakes Liza for someone almost 20 years younger, she decides to reinvent herself as a 26-year-old publishing assistant. THE MARKS: Everyone at work, especially Liza’s boss Diana Trout (Miriam Shor) and co-worker Kelsey Peters (Hillary Duff). THE INVESTIGATORS: No one is actively looking into it, but the sweet spot of the show is all the near misses. THE STAKES: Unemployment, shame, being blacklisted in the publishing biz, public and private humiliation. Liza also dreads being a bad role model to her college-aged daughter Caitlin Miller (Tessa Albertson). When the series begins, Caitlin is studying in India, unaware of her mother’s ruse. Tragically, at the end of Season 2, best friend and co-worker Kelsey’s fiancé Thad (Dan Amboyer) is killed !1 in an accident right after he discovers her lie, and Liza’s love life is in disarray as she tries to choose between on-again/off-again boyfriend Josh (Nico Tortorella) and her boss Charles (Peter Hermann). OPEN or CLOSED CON: Open. Liza functions as a 26-year-old at work, and is only herself in private. THE BLOW OFF: On Younger’s Season 3 finale, Liza finally reveals her real age to Kelsey. The truth gets out. And the next season deals with the fallout.

    RockyMusic - Hedwig and the Angry Inch (1999 Script) 8/26/18, 7:59 AM RockyMusic The Musical World of Rocky Horror Hedwig and the Angry Inch (1999 Script) 62,711 views CATEGORY: Play Scripts TAGS: Hedwig and the Angry Inch John Cameron Mitchell Stephen Trask HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH Text by John Cameron Mitchell. Music & lyrics by Stephen Trask. Hedwig and The Angry Inch was originally presented at the Westbeth Theatre Center on February 27, 1997 by David Binder. It was presented off-Broadway at the Jane Street Theatre on February 14, 1998 by Peter Askin, Susann Brinkley, James B. Freydberg. The cast was as follows: Hedwig/Tommy Gnosis - John Cameron Mitchell Yitzhak - Miriam Shor The Angry Inch - Cheater, comprised of Stephen Trask, Chris Weilding, Dave McKinley, Scott Bilbrey Directed by Peter Askin Set by James Youmans Lighting by Kevin Adams AUTHORS' NOTE This script is, at best, a record of a single evening of a single production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. We deliberately developed it over a number of years in non-theatrical venues—rock clubs, drag bars, birthday parties, friends' patios—in order to keep it free-flowing, improvisational, alive. We encourage other productions to keep this sense of freedom by ad-libbing when appropriate within the confines of the world of the piece. This script reflects that we were performing at the Hotel Riverview where survivors of the Titanic actually stayed. Tommy Gnosis was therefore "performing" nearby at Giants Stadium. We feel that every production should be site-specific so that the character of Hedwig is actually performing in and commenting on the space the production is occupying.

  • Sutton Foster, Hilary Duff, Debi Mazar and Miriam Shor to Headline Tv Land’S Sitcom Pilot “Younger” from Darren Star
    SUTTON FOSTER, HILARY DUFF, DEBI MAZAR AND MIRIAM SHOR TO HEADLINE TV LAND’S SITCOM PILOT “YOUNGER” FROM DARREN STAR Production Starts In New York This Week New York, NY – February 7, 2014 – Production has begun on TV Land’s newest sitcom pilot, “Younger,” starring Tony® Award winner Sutton Foster (“Bunheads”) Hilary Duff (“Lizzie McGuire”), Debi Mazar (“Entourage”) and Miriam Shor (“GCB”). The single- camera project, which is written, executive produced and directed by Darren Star (“Sex and the City”), is based on the novel “Younger” by Pamela Redmond Satran. Patricia Field, who worked with Star on “Sex and the City,” will be a costume consultant on the production. “Younger” follows 40-year-old Liza (Foster), a suddenly single mother who tries to get back into the working world, only to find out it’s nearly impossible to start at the bottom at her age. When a chance encounter with a 20-something guy at a bar convinces her she looks younger than she is, Liza tries to pass herself off as 26 – with the help of a makeover, courtesy of her best friend Maggie (Mazar). Armed with new confidence, she lands a job as an assistant to the temperamental Diana (Shor) and teams up with her new co-worker and fellow 20-something Kelsey (Duff) to make it in the career of her dreams. TV Land also recently announced the pick-up of another single-camera sitcom, “Jennifer Falls,” starring Jaime Pressly. The network’s current original sitcoms includes hit series “Hot in Cleveland,” “The Exes,” “The Soul Man” and “Kirstie,” starring pop culture icons and fan favorites including Betty White, Valerie Bertinelli, Wendie Malick, Jane Leeves, Kristen Johnston, Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche, Kelly Stables, Cedric "The Entertainer," Niecy Nash, Wesley Jonathan, Kirstie Alley, Michael Richards, Rhea Perlman and Eric Petersen.
