ATTHE TRIAD

October 28, 2011(New York) - Billy Van ZandtJane Milmore (Silent Laughter, Love, Sex, and the I.R.S., A Night at the Nutcracker) welcome KhrystyneHaje to their e-mail comedy of errors, Billy Van ZandtJane Milmore’sYou've Got Hate Mail on November 4, 2011 at the Triad (158 West 72 St, NYC.)

Hailed by critics (“The perfect bedroom farce…expertly directed…riotously enacted by a five-person ensemble!” –NY Post) (“LOL…The audience is guaranteed to do just that – Laugh Out loud!” -Star Ledger) (“It doesn’t get better than this!”–Show Business Weekly)(“A rapid-paced romp with a millennium twist!Hilarious!” –Curtainup.com), (“Behind this very funny theater piece lurk many surprises” –Huffington Post), You’ve Got Hate Mail is a hilarious look at online hook-up and break-ups.

Love "bytes" all when an extra-marital affair goes horribly wrong, thanks to a juicy e-mail left sitting on a desktop. The story is told entirely in e-mails from laptop computers, although the play does manage to have an unforgettable chase scene - thanks to Blackberries and iPhones.

In addition to Ms. Haje, the cast includes Glenn Jones, Barbara Bonilla and Fran Solgan. Gary Shaffer (High School Reunion: The Musical) directs. However, the opportunity exists for terrific guest artists to step in from time-to-time. Upcoming guest stars includeCerina Vincent(Not Another Teen Movie), Meg Bennett (“Young & Restless,” Grease), “Newhart’s” Julia Duffy and Peter Scolariwill be reuniting. Dates TBA.
