Nantucket Sleigh Ride

John Guare (Six Degrees of Separation) teams anew with director Jerry Zaks (Hello, Dolly!) in what looks to be a whale of a tale, set on the genteel isle of Nantucket. John Larroquette plays a Manhattan playwright-cum-capitalist whose effort to recall an event that occurred decades earlier draws him into adventures that involve Roman Polanski, Jorge Luis Borges, Walt Disney, a murder, a porno ring and a giant lobster. The cast of 10 includes Tina Benko, Will Swenson and Douglas Sills.
