Hoffman recently appeared in the Richard Greenberg-scribed half of Drama Dept.'s double-bill, The Author's Voice, but reached critical acclaim for his movie roles in "Twister," the independent films "Happiness" and "Boogie Nights." Aside from Voice, Hoffman has appeared in numerous New York productions, including Shopping and Fucking, and Defying Gravity.

Adly-Guirgis is also the author of Boom Boom Boom Boom, Den of Thieves, and Moonlight Mile).
