A hunky fireman and the impossibly attractive "girl next door" turn one couple's cold feet into a fun parable of modern love. Written by Jeremy Desmon and directed by Maplewood resident Jeremy Dobrish, the local cast of Broadway stars includes Becky Gulsvig (Legally Blonde), David Josefsberg (Alter Boyz), Christiane Noll (Ragtime, Tony Nominee), and Charlie Pollock (9 to 5). 

Midtown Direct Rep is a a new theater company in residence comprised of a group of accomplished theater artists who call Maplewood/South Orange home.

According to Jeremy Dobrish, Midtown Direct Rep Co-Artistic Director, "Midtown Direct Rep was formed because there's an incredible amount of theater talent that has chosen to make their homes in this area, and we wanted to be able to do great work with other professionals within our own community at a state of the art facility like SOPAC."
