Looped, according to press notes, "takes place in the summer of 1965, when an inebriated Tallulah stumbles into a sound studio to rerecord (or 'loop') one line of dialogue for her last movie. Given her intoxicated state, what ensues is an uproarious showdown between an uptight film editor and the outrageous legend." Rob Ruggiero directs.
Looped plays The Lyceum Theatre, 149 West 45th Street.
