TACT/The Actors Company Theatre's revival of T.S. Eliot's The Cocktail Party plays Off-Broadway's Beckett Theatre.

Scott Alan Evans directs TACT co-artistic directors Cynthia Harris and Simon Jones in the work along with TACT members Mark Alhadeff and Jack Koenig and guest artists Jeremy Beck, Ben Beckley, Lauren English, Erika Rolfsrud and Celia Smith.

In the play, "Edward and Lavinia Chamberlayne are throwing a party at their fashionable London flat. The guests arrive only to discover that their hostess is nowhere to be found and a rather strange man, unknown to all, acts right at home. Ruthless, compassionate and funny, this 'Cocktail Party' embodies the day-to-day struggles of domestic life while turning the classic 'drawing room comedy' on its head."

Here is a look at the show:
