[title of show]

It’s a play about the process of writing and producing a play, in which the first scene we see is also the first scene of the play. Deliciously postmodern and ultrameta; with delightful lead performances by Connor Mickiewicz (Jeff) and Jerry Lee (Hunter) that are well supported by Keira O’Neil Anderson (Heidi) and Melinda Parrett (Susan), keyboardist Graham Sobelman (Larry) and four chairs. Oh, and theater jokes galore. Th, F 8p; Sa 2 & 8pm. Through 10/30. $15-$25. New Helvetia Theatre Company at the Artisan Theatre, 1901 Del Paso Boulevard; (916) 469-9850; www.newhelvetia.org.
