Leslye Headland is a writer for the stage and screen, including the film Sleeping with Other People, and she has had a long career off Broadway, starting over a decade ago and including Assistance at Playwrights Horizons. Her latest play, Cult of Love, is the final one in her cycle of plays about the seven deadly sins. This new work, her long-awaited Broadway debut, focuses on pride. Growing up Christian, the playwright attributes a lot of her work to her upbringing, digging into the hilarity and absurdity of an obsession with behavior deemed sinful.
Trip Cullman has a long history of working on new plays and musicals, including The Pain of My Belligerence, Unknown Soldier, and Moscow x6. Many have been off Broadway, but he has now been directing on Broadway as well, and Cult of Love marks his return. This new show comes to Second Stage, a theatre known for its adventurous new plays.
Cult of Love is at New York's Hayes Theater, which is located at 240 West 44th Street, New York, 10036.
