'House of Yes' at Edison Valley Playhouse

"The House of Yes", a dark and literally bloody comedy, opens tonight at Edison Valley Playhouse.

It's Thanksgiving, and Marty's arrival home is greatly anticipated by his mother, his twin sister Jackie-O, and his younger brother Anthony. He arrives during a hurricane, but worse than the storm is the fact that Marty brings Lesly, his fiancée. This ruins everything. Marty's engagement is a threat to the well-being of his family and a greater threat to Jackie-O, who has always wanted her brother for herself. On top of that, Jackie-O has just recently been released from a mental hospital, Anthony dropped out of Princeton, and their mother is having difficulty handling any of this. Jackie-O convinces Anthony to try and seduce Lesly and steal her away from Marty, who will then have to stay at home. This suits Anthony just fine as he is immediately attracted to Lesly. The only way he finds to seduce her, though, is to convince her that Marty and Jackie-O are lovers.

"The House of Yes," directed by Brian Remo, features Shiva Kiani, Craig Tiede, Robert Sidebottom, Debbie Campanali, and Kristine Stringer.

The show opens June 5 and runs at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays through June 20 and at 2 p.m. June 14.
