Alec Baldwin to Headline Entertaining Mr. Sloane Off-Broadway
Entertaining Mr. Sloane centers on a handsome stranger with a secret, his libidinous landlady, her gender-bending brother and geriatric father. Kath's Emery language may be prim but her intentions are blatant when she picks up Mr. Sloane Carmack and takes him in as a lodger. Attractive, mischievous and dangerous, Sloane eventually has Kath, her brother Ed Baldwin and their father Kemp Easton eating out of his hand as they all compete for his favors. Together they play out a sexual tug of war, where they will resort to anything to get what they want.
