A.R. Gurney’s comedy centers around Amanda, a once successful television personality whose star is now fading.  Life imitates art as she returns to her hometown of Buffalo to star in Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard.  Just as she is connecting with her roots – both on stage and off –  she is called back to Hollywood for a role that could recharge her career.  Will her love of theater be enough to keep her in Buffalo?   

A.R Gurney, the author of Love Letters and The Dining Room, has given Primary Stages audiences such rare theatrical treasures as The Fourth Wall and the Outer Critic's Circle Award winning Indian Blood, directed by Mark Lamos.
