| Two Cups and a String Theatre Presents a Dark Family Comedy One More Time with Malice March 8 – 17 at The Robert Moss Theatre Two Cups and a String Theatre presents the World Premiere of award-winning playwright, Rob Cardazone’s new play, One More Time with Malice. The play is directed by Eric Nightengale. One More Time with Malice runs March 8 – 17 at The Robert Moss Theatre in NoHo. Set in a New Jersey hospital in the mid-90s, Freddie, an anxious, sharp witted, gay New Yorker, had planned to tell his family about his HIV status. After his mother tries to commit suicide, he now has the perfect excuse not to. At the hospital, things quickly get tense in this forced family reunion as the siblings try to navigate old wounds, while their father bullies them into making their mom promise to “never to do it again.” Seeing his mother this way, Freddie fears his own death. He and his mother share drug induced hallucinations. Hot Nurse Donny, the perfect escape, is a beacon of light helping Freddie see that with new breakthrough medication, he may not die, so he better figure out how to live. A witty, complex drama about facing fears, mortality, sexuality, spiritually, and trying to connect. One More Time with Malice stars Stephen Joshua Thompson (Friction/The Mint) as Freddie, and features Tom Ciorciari (Indian Wants The Bronx/Performing Arts Foundation), Zoey O’Toole (Six Degrees of Separation/T. Schreiber Studio), Kiley Rothweiler (Foreign Bodies/New York Theatre Workshop), Marc Sinoway (Tommy in Seasons 1 & 2 of Hunting Season/LOGO & Vimeo On Demand), and Amanda Tudor (The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore with Olympia Dukakis/Roundabout Theatre). The creative team includes costume design by Candace Lawrence, sound design by Eric Nightengale, lighting design by Christina Watanabe, scenic design by Rob Cardazone, and stage management by Kristine Schlachter.
