Lisa Ferber's new comedy: Bonbons for Breakfast June 1, 2006

"Bonbons for Breakfast" is a rip-roaring satire of the contemporary art world. Bon vivant artist Wimbly and his fashionista playwright girlfriend Toots plan an art project to cover New York City?s Riverside Park in red licorice. The couple is devastated by the sudden disappearance of their sommelier, Schmutzy, and they feel helpless to go on. Little do they know that Schmutzy has been lured away by Wimbly?s lovable Society benefactors Merciful and Miniver. Meanwhile, Boz (the art world?s It Boy until ?the sardine fiasco?) feels distraught that his earnest approach to art is overshadowed by the trendsters, and his headstrong wife Margaret launches a march to show the evils of Wimbly?s project. Written by Lisa Ferber and directed by Ivanna Cullinan. Incidental music by Robert Firpo-Cappiello. Starring: Alyssa Simon, Salvatore Brienik, The Lovely Hope Cartelli, Miriam Lipner, Maggie Cino, David Marcus, John Kinsherf.
