See Broadway-Bound Hugh Dancy Invent the Vibrator in Trailer for New Movie Hysteria

In what’s being described as a "Victorian vibrator romantic comedy," Broadway-bound actor Hugh Dancy (Venus in Fur) co-stars with stage vets Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jonathan Pryce, Rupert Everett and London musical star Sheridan Smith in the new movie Hysteria. Though the Stephen Dyer's film has no relationship with Sarah Ruhl’s In the Next Room or the Vibrator Play, the plot sounds similar: a young doctor invents a device that cures women of “hysteria” by providing pleasure…well, you get the drift. Hysteria, which has no official release date, will be featured at the 2011 Toronto film festival. Click below to see the amusing trailer, then get set to welcome Dancy to Broadway.
