The Florida Studio Theatre production of
VERONICA’S POSITION
“Orloff’s writing is sharp. He has an easy way with humor, and it’s more
knowing than most of what passes for comedy in the theater today.”
“A well-constructed romantic comedy. Polished banter with an edge.
Articulate, fast-paced and funnier than reality, Orloff’s creation looks
at love, art and contemporary politics.”
“Playwright Rich Orloff has crafted a snappy, smart comedy which skewers
political pretensions and Hollywood hipsters.”
VERONICA’S POSITION
mixes love, politics and art in a
star-spangled comedy set in Washington, D.C., 1990. When two middle-aged
movie superstars (a la Liz Taylor & Richard Burton) agree to co-star in
a Broadway-bound stage production of HEDDA GABLER, and when
she becomes engaged to a conservative U.S. senator while he becomes
attracted to their sexy, young, female director, sparks begin to fly.
When her gay assistant gets involved with a controversial photographic
artist, everyone’s relationship gets tangled and mangled until
apolitical Veronica is forced to take a position.
