The world-premiere production of Cal in Camo officially opens May 20 following previews that began May 6.

Presented by Colt Coeur and Rattlestick Playwrights Theater, the new dark comedy by William Francis Hoffman is about the nature of family bonds and our capacity for human connection.

Cal in Camo is directed by Adrienne Campbell-Holt and stars Tony nominee David Harbour (Glengarry Glen Ross), Katya Campbell (How to Make Friends and then Kill Them) and Paul Wesley (Vampire Diaries).

Cal in Camo, according to press notes, explores the “turns, great and small, that get in the way of love, of family, of taking care of ourselves and those we hold most dear – and the sense of inadequacy we may feel in the moments when life seems to ask the most of us.” It is billed as a “deeply moving and darkly funny play.”

The production features scenery by John McDermott, costumes by Sueann Leung, lighting by Grant Yeager, sound design by Amy Altadonna, properties by Deb Gaouette and production management by Jeremy Pape. Sarah Devon Ford serves as production stage manager.

Tickets can be purchased by visiting rattlestick.org, coltcoeur.org, or by calling Ovationtix at (866) 811-4111.
