David Grimm's play, which explores the effects of war on women, also features Tina Benko, Michael Esper, Michael Goldsmith and Lucas Hall

"Heléna (Arianda) lost her husband in World War I, and with him, her financial security," press notes state. "Struggling to maintain her way of life, she becomes part of an illicit underworld. Heléna manages to separate her secret life from her public persona — that is until she crosses paths with a man who has the power to expose and ruin her."

Directed by Kate Whoriskey, the production continues through April 27.
