Andrea Navedo is preparing for an Off-Broadway run…
The 55-year-old Puerto Rican actress and former Jane the Virgin star will take part in The View co-host Joy Behar‘s upcoming Off Broadway comedic play My First Ex-Husband.
The play, directed by Randal Myler at the newly renovated MMAC Theater on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, will feature a rotating line-up of performers, with the cast of four changing each month.
A Behar-led cast of Susie Essman, Tovah Feldshuh and Adrienne C. Moore will be first up, running from January 29 to February 23.
From February 26 to March 23, the second cast will feature comedienne Judy Gold, Emmy-winner Susan Lucci, Cathy Moriarty and Tony Award winner Tonya Pinkins.
From March 26 to April 20, the third cast will be Veanne Cox; Gina Gershon, who will only be performing April 2-20; Emmy-nominee Jackie Hoffman and Navedo.
The official synopsis: “If half of all marriages end in divorce, then in My First Ex-Husband, women live to laugh about it….In the world of the play, you’ll meet women married to the mob, to their jobs, to their faith, to money and ultimately to the wrong man. Their stories are your stories…only funnier.”
The show is produced by Rose Caiola and Cyrena Esposito with Associate Producers Mark Rubinsky and Tony Castrigno.
