Curtain Call

THEATER: The Pilot Who Crashed the Party


Something mysterious is going on. Danger, not out of the question. Something… funny. Add a classical string duo. And enjoy the world premiere production, written and directed by Tony Award-winning actor and Second City alum Paul Sand. An off-beat homage to the drawing room dramas of the 1930s, this unique and entertaining new play is set in the Santa Monica Mountains on a violent, stormy night filled with rain, lightning and thunder. The streets outside the mansion where Sally is celebrating her 50th birthday are narrow, winding and newly full of mud — when a pilot in a small, single engine plane literally crashes the party.

Time: 8 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays, through May 7

Cost: $20 to $35

Venue: Broadwater Theatre Main Stage, 6320 Santa Monica Blvd., Los Angeles
