Hampton Theatre Company to Open Curtain on New Show

The show will open on May 23.

On May 23, the Hampton Theatre Company will open the curtain on a new show, "How the other half loves," originally produced in 1992.

The show, written by Alan Ayckbourn, "involves three couples, an indiscretion, a cover-up, accusations and crumbling alibis on overlapping sets that all leads to confusion and uproarious comedy, according to the theatre company.

According to the theatre company, the show is "beloved by both audiences and actors."

Playing in the production, which is directed by Diana Marbury, who played the role of Fiona Foster in the 1992 production, is a cast of six — three are company regulars and three are newcomers.

Among them are Andrew Botsford, Rosemary Cline, Jessica Ellwood, Jonathan Holtzman, Mark McCarthy, and Jane Cortney.

The set is designed by Sean Marbury; lighting is by Sebastian Paczynski; set decor by Diana Marbury; and costumes by Teresa LeBrun.

"How The Other Half Loves" will run through June 9 at the Quogue Community Hall on Jessup Avenue. Showtimes are Thursdays at 7, Fridays and Saturdays at 8, and Sundays at 2:30. The Hampton Theatre Company is also offering special dinner theater packages in collaboration with the Southampton, Westhampton Beach, Hampton Bays and Quogue libraries.
