Halley Feiffer, Adam Green Set for Off-Broadway Comedy None of the Above

Halley Feiffer and Adam Green, who recently appeared together in Second Stage's summer production of Election Day, will reteam in Jenny Lyn Bader's comedy None of the Above. The inaugual production of the newly formed South Ark Stage Company, the play will begin previews on September 25 and open on October 10 at Theatre Row's Lion Theatre. The 10-week engagement is set to run through November 25, directed by Julie Kramer.

None of the Above is described as a comedy about privilege, addiction, transcending stereotypes and getting into Princeton. What happens when a high-priced SAT tutor is hired to coach a spoiled Upper East Side girl? When both of their futures depend on her success, will she surprise everyone and rise to the occasion, or will she fail to make the grade? Coincidentally, both of the play's young stars grew up in New York City and graduated from prestigious colleges Feiffer from Wesleyan; Green from Harvard.

In addition to her recent work in Election Day, Feiffer co-starred in Second Stage's revival of Eric Bogosian's subUrbia and has appeared off-Broadway in Urgent Fury and Feiffer's People. Her films include You Can Count on Me, The Squid and the Whale, Stephanie Daley and the upcoming Margot at the Wedding, which co-stars Nicole Kidman and Jack Black.

Green's off-Broadway credits include Election Day, The Last Word, All This Intimacy, Bone Portraits and Amerikus Rex. Regional credits include Awake and Sing!, The Chosen, The Heart Is a Lovely Hunter and The Merchant of Venice.

The design team for None of the Above includes Lauren Helpern sets, Graham Kindred lighting, Melissa Schlachtmeyer costumes and Jill DuBoff sound.

None of the Above is the inaugural production of the newly formed South Ark Stage Company, Rhoda Herrick, artistic director. Upcoming productions include: The Black Monk by Wendy Kesselman and Bully Pulpit by Michael Smith, both to be presented in 2008 at Theatre Row's Beckett Theatre.
