The off-Broadway comedic drama Rantoul and Die opens June 24 at the Cherry Lane Theatre. The show is set to run through July 20.
The play focuses on Rallis and Debbie, a couple whose marriage has reached its expiration date. In fact, it's soured and stuck to the bottom of the carton. She wants him to pack his stuff and hit the bricks, but he's clinging to the past like a cat on a screen door. How far will a man go to hang onto his lady? It's a thin line between love and hate. A kiss and a punch. An ice cream cone and a beer bottle to the back of the head.
Written by Mark Roberts and directed by Jay Stull, Rantoul and Die stars Derek Ahonen, Sarah Lemp, Matthew Pilieci and Vanessa Vache.
