Play-acting: George, played by Kevin Zuchowski, puts a blade under the throat of Howard, played by Reed Gordon in “Moon Over Buffalo” — a show about the pitfalls and joys of acting. The play is set in the 1950s but the on-stage mayhem careens from the 1640’s Paris of “Cyrano de Bergerac,” filled with passion and pathos, to a 1930’s comedy of manners created by Noel Coward.

Gripping: Charlotte Hay, played by Morgan Dempsey, gives a strenuous massage to her husband, George, played by Kevin Zuchowski, as she talks about their stress. The pair are actors at the breaking point. After decades on stage together, they are performing in a repertory theater in Buffalo: “Cyrano de Bergerac” in one performance, and Noel Coward’s “Private Lives” in the next. The two productions get comically intertwined.
