Rachel Dratch Set for Gurney’s SYLVIA at George Street Playhouse, 3/30-4/25
Here’s another post regarding Rachel’s upcoming starring role in “Sylvia”..
from broadwayworld.com:
It is now confirmed that Minsky’s alum and former Saturday Night Live favorite Rachel Dratch will star in the production.
In SYLVIA, Greg and Kate have moved to Manhattan after twenty-two years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg’s career as a financial trader is winding down, while Kate’s career, as a public-school English teacher, is beginning to offer her more opportunities. Greg brings home a dog he found in the park-or that has found him-bearing only “Sylvia” on her name tag.
A street-smart mutt, Sylvia becomes a major bone of contention between husband and wife. She offers Greg an escape from the frustrations of his job and the unknowns of middle age. To Kate, Sylvia becomes a rival for affection. And Sylvia thinks Kate just doesn’t understand the relationship between man and dog. The marriage is put in serious jeopardy until, after a series of hilarious and touching complications, Greg and Kate learn to compromise, and Sylvia becomes a valued part of their lives.

Watch What Happens Live | Bravo TV
Last night, Rachel appeared with Padma Lakshmi on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live”. I didn’t know about this until only a little while before it aired, as her appearance on the show wasn’t very much publicized. I found out from a friend who tweeted me.
Fortunately, the episode will be repeated several times today/Fri as well as over the weekend. Check your local listings, and Bravo’s schedule.
Web exclusive content should soon be appearing at the show’s official site so, if you don’t see anything, keep checking back!
