The musical is based on the 19th century play <i>LaRonde<\/i>, by Arthur Schniztler, in which &#8220;A&#8221; has an affair with &#8220;B&#8221;, then &#8220;B&#8221; has an affair with &#8220;C&#8221;, then &#8220;C&#8221; with &#8220;D&#8221;, &#8220;D&#8221; with &#8220;E&#8221;, etc, until finally &#8220;J&#8221; has an\u00a0affair with &#8220;A&#8221;. An endless cycle of people grasping for fulfillment through pleasures of the flesh.<\/p>\n<p>I took over the role of &#8220;the husband&#8221;, originally played by Tony-nominee, Bob Stillman, who (lucky for me!) had another commitment for the last part of the run. The ridiculously\u00a0talented &#8220;dectet&#8221; of Broadway vets also included:<br \/>\n&#8211; Alan Campbell (<i>Sunset Boulevard<\/i>, Tony nominee)<br \/>\n&#8211; Blake Daniel (<i>Spring Awakening<\/i>)<br \/>\n&#8211; Jonathan Hammond (<i>Ragtime<\/i>)<br \/>\n&#8211; Rachel Bay Jones (<i>Women on the Verge, HAIR<\/i>)<br \/>\n&#8211; Nikka Graff Lanzarone (<i>Women on the Verge<\/i>)<br \/>\n&#8211; Robert Lenzi (<i>South Pacific<\/i>)<br \/>\n&#8211; Alexandra Silber (West End&#8217;s <i>Women in White, Fiddler, Carousel<\/i>)<br \/>\n&#8211; Elizabeth Stanley (<i>Million Dollar Quartet, Cry-Baby, Company<\/i>) and<br \/>\n&#8211; Max von Essen (<i>Les Miz, Dance of the Vampires, JCS<\/i>)<\/p>\n<p>Though I jumped in in the middle, this show was one of the most satisfying theatrical ventures I&#8217;ve ever done.
