With musical direction by Brent Crayon, choreography by Lee Martino and direction by Nick DeGruccio, performances are scheduled for Sept. 18-Oct. 11 at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts.

"When blind date newbie Aaron is set up with serial-dater Casey, a casual drink at a busy New York restaurant turns into a hilarious high-stakes dinner," according to press notes. "As the date unfolds in real time, the couple quickly finds they are not alone in this unpredictable evening. In a delightful and unexpected twist, Casey and Aaron's inner critics take on a life of their own when other restaurant patrons transform into supportive best friends, manipulative exes and protective parents who sing and dance the pair through ice-breakers, appetizers and potential conversational land mines. Can this couple turn what could be a dating disaster into something special before the check arrives?"
The production will also have set design by Stephen Gifford; lighting design by Steven Young; sound design by Josh Bessom; costume design by Thomas G. Marquez; hair, makeup and wig design by Katie McCoy; and properties design by Terry Hanrahan. Casting is by Julia Flores, and the production stage manager is Jill Gold.
