Tom X. Chao's plays have all concerned loneliness--until now! Chao (Cats Can See the Devil, Can't Get Started) finally gets started, only to learn what really happens when you enter a relationship: A magical being materializes with vodka to help celebrate. But what if it's not love? "Callous Cad" presents a fast-paced and singularly unique investigation into what constitutes a fulfilling relationship. For lovers and non-lovers of all ages (except children). Comic actress Rosalie Purvis co-stars, presenting a startling variety of roles.

A one-act comedy performed by Tom X. Chao & Rosalie Purvis.
Written by TOM X. CHAO.

Co. Member A. Chlumsky GOES OFF-BWAY!

Kristen Johnston stars as a stage diva struggling to remain center stage in the Mint Theatre Company production of Maurine Dallas Watkins' comedy So Help Me God!, which begins previews Off-Broadway Nov. 18.

Mint artistic director Jonathan Bank stages the production that is set to officially open Dec. 7 at the Lucille Lortel Theatre. The limited run will continue through Dec. 20.

Johnston (The Women, "3rd Rock from the Sun") stars as Lily, the demanding leading actress, with Anna Chlumsky ("My Girl," Fabulous Life of a Size Zero) as her ambitious, yet naïve understudy, who aims to take her place.

Johnston headlined a reading of So Help Me God! last summer at the Lortel. Watkins is the late playwright of Chicago (the basis for the Kander and Ebb musical), as well as the screenplays "Libeled Lady" and "Roxie Hart."
