On Tuesday, September 18, the esteemed Playwrights Horizons theater company opened their first production of the season with Kate Fodor's new drama
100 Saints You Should Know, directed by Ethan McSweeny. Telling the tale of a small group of people in search of spiritual meaning,
Saints boasts the return to the New York boards of the Obie Award-winning stage great Lois Smith (
The Trip to Bountiful), as well as the off-Broadway debut of
The West Wing TV star (and recent Broadway.com
Fresh Face) Janel Moloney. After the opening night curtain calls, we happily joined
Saints' leading ladies, their co-stars Zoe Kazan, Jeremy Shamos and Will Rogers, plus a host of Playwrights Horizons' alums for a toast at the West Bank Café, directly across the road from the theater's residence on West 42nd Street. Check it out.
