Beverly Hills: A Pretend Soap Opera Performed by Real Actors

Back in the 80s, when Michael Ausiello was a closeted gay teen living in small-town New Jersey, he penned 517 episodes of a daytime soap opera, titled Beverly Hills. Miraculously, he saved every handwritten script. Now, four decades later, some of the biggest names in comedy will come together to perform a 60-minute reading of a self-contained story arc that found six of Beverly Hills’ most popular characters traveling overseas for a life-or-death adventure. Although some of Teenage Michael’s atrocious spelling has been cleaned up for this theatrical experience, the scenes will be performed exactly as they were written nearly 40 years ago. For better or worse.

Cast: Caitlin Reilly, Tony Hale, Dulé Hill, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash, Melissa Fumero, Mitch Silpa, Patrick Gallagher, Sarah Ramos, Tony Rodrigues, Tristan Michael Brown
