Jesse Eisenberg's "Asuncion," an off-Broadway play will begin its performances at the Cherry Lane Theater in New York City on October 12th with October 27th as its opening night."Asuncion" written by Academy-award nominee and up-coming playwright Jesse Eisenberg stars Remy Auberjonois, Justin Bartha, Camille Mana, and Jesse himself.
"In Asuncion, Edgar and Vinny are not racist. In fact, Edgar maintains a blog condemning American imperialism and Vinny is three-quarters into a PhD in Black Studies. When a young Filipina woman named Asuncion becomes their new roommate, the pair have a perfect opportunity to demonstrate how open minded they truly are. This hilarious and heartbreaking new play explores the complicated ways we exploit culture and politics for our own needs." (OffBroadway)
