PHOTO CALL: The Public Doles Out Measures of Pleasure at Opening

By Morgan Allen
11 Mar 2006

The Public Theater opened it’s world premiere production of playwright David Grimm’s Measure for Pleasure at it’s Anspacher Theater on March 8.

Starring Tony nominees Michael Stuhlbarg (The Pillowman) and Euan Morton (Taboo), the play is a comedic combination of styles and themes that features a variety of elements ranging from “mistaken identities, duels and double-dealings, gay marriage and the obligatory sex cave,” according to production notes, as “Restoration comedy meets modern sex farce.”

At left, Stuhlbarg, as well as co-stars Wayne Knight and Suzanne Bertish are seen after the show. Below, fellow cast members Emily Swallow, Morton, director Peter DuBois and Grimm take in the atmosphere at the opening night party for Measure for Pleasure at Pop, located at 127 Fourth Avenue in New York City.
