About the Play.
"...Another Man's Poison." reveals the irony of the sweet revenge of success set in the fascinating backdrop of primetime television.

When the struggling comedian, Frankie Masters, finally gets his shot at his own network television show in 1970, his imminent success exposes the hidden conflict and mounting turmoil of his personal life. This play takes place at a time before celebrity gossip and tabloid exposés were the norm. It takes a close look at lives intertwined -- where each character has a price to pay and a very personal life dilemma that will forever impact the other. It is a pivotal time in our history, where the Vietnam War, exposing the racial divide, and the politicizing of sexual identity all conspire to add depth and texture to the drama.

This potent play is a quintessential Hollywood story with a distinct New York bite. "...Another Man's Poison." is full of pointed humor, straightforward drama, and feeds our incessant desire to peer into the "making of a celebrity." It is a story of family, reaching for goals, and the choices that are made along the way.

The versatile cast lends a tense, but humorous hand in telling Frankie's story of how "ONE MAN'S FEAST IS ... ANOTHER MAN'S POISON."
