The play begins in the aftermath of a wild undergrad party, when morning-after gossip about the characters played by Lauria and Mamet rips through a tight-knit group of friends, exposing issues of sexual politics, ambition and class division.

Beginning previews Jan. 31 for a Feb. 19 opening, the drama will also star Lauren Culpepper, David Hull, Evan Jonigkeit, Kobi Libii and Aleque Reid. The play premiered last season at Signature Theater in Virginia, where it had a record-breaking run.

As previously announced, the final show in MCC Theater's 2012-13 season will be the world premiere of Neil LaBute's Reasons to Be Happy, a companion piece to the playwright's 2009 Tony-nominated drama Reasons to Be Pretty. No casting has been set for that production, which LaBute will also direct.
