IT'S BACK FOR TWO WEEKS ONLY, BECAUSE YOU ASKED!

It’s the world premiere of acclaimed playwright Jerry Mayer’s serious comedy that celebrates Girl Power, embraces family, and showcases how terribly things can go awry when we place the bottom line at the top of the list. "Angel" fulfills Mayer's life-long crusade against abuse, be it spousal or legal, and introduces the angel of an attorney (yes, there is such a thing) who’s on a mission to chase them down.

From the acclaimed team that brought you Aspirin & ELEPHANTS, 2 Across, Almost Perfect,  A Love Affair, Mistakes Were Made and You Haven’t Changed a Bit (and Other Lies) comes the world premiere of Jerry Mayer’s 13th play.

“Angel” fulfills Mayer’s life-long crusade against ambulance chasers, those predators whose faces leer down at us from every billboard in town, as he introduces the angel of an attorney (yes, there is such a thing) who's on a mission to chase them off the road.

94-year-old playwright Jerry Mayer, who has written for M*A*S*H, The Bob Newhart Show, All in the Family, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Facts of Life (where he was executive producer) and five of Mitzi Gaynor’s TV Specials, never shies away from tackling the big issues and MY LAWYER IS AN ANGEL is no exception. 

“Chris DeCarlo is a masterful director.” Theatre Scene

Chris DeCarlo, Playhouse Co-Artistic Director, has helmed 13 of Mayer’s world premiere comedies. Says DeCarlo, "Jerry Mayer's plays are a joy for a director, a cast and of course, an audience, touching on issues to which we can all relate - love, romance, marriage, financial woes, parents, infidelity, aging, and friendship. Experiencing a Jerry Mayer play brings us that much closer to the realization that turning the frown upside down is the best way to navigate through life’s most serious issues, big or small.”

And it's back for a limited two-week engagement after delighting audiences since the Spring!
