‘POTUS’ BRILLIANT POLITICAL SATIRE WITH A FEMININE TOUCH AT ARSHT CENTER
The Delray Beach Playhouse’s “Living on Love”: Fabulously Fizzy, Fifties Fun
Comedy, romance, and just a dash of drama—Living on Love has it all! A classic screwball comedy at its finest, the play (written by Joe DiPietro and based on the play Peccadillo by Garson Kanin) follows the hilarious hijinks of a famous power couple and the ghostwriters they’ve hired to pen their respective autobiographies. When acclaimed diva Raquel DeAngelis (Mallory Newbrough) discovers that her husband, the feisty and often self-centered Maestro Vito DeAngelis (Wayne LeGette) has fallen for the sweet young woman (Amber Lynn Benson) he’s hired to ghostwrite his (mostly fictional) autobiography, she retaliates by hiring her own handsome ghostwriter (Jim Tyminski) to tell the tale of her illustrious career as an opera star. Completing this talented, laugh-out-loud funny cast are butlers Bruce (Jack Stein) and Eric (Matt Schenk), who just might have some secrets of their own. Sparks—and snow globes—fly as unexpected romances bloom and unforgettable stories are told amidst the chaos.
