Imaginary Comforts, or The Title Too Long For A Subject Line

[Dante]

A good year and a half since we first heard about it, today we finally have some new information on Handler's upcoming play, courtesy of BroadwayWorld. The play is fully titled Imaginary Comforts, or The Story of the Ghost of the Dead Rabbit, which in full is too long to fit in the subject line of this thread (though when we first heard about it, it didn't have the "Imaginary Comforts" part). It's due to be performed at Berkeley Repertory Theater in October 2017, and will be directed by Tony Taccone, who apparently also worked on The Composer Is Dead with Handler; unlike TCID, though, it seems it's considered as being for adults rather than children. Here's a synopsis:

Fantastical and wise, hilarious and sobering, Imaginary Comforts celebrates ordinary people trying to make sense out of life in the midst of endless, comedic chaos that includes a bumbling rabbi, a hysterical widow, and, yes, the ghost of a dead rabbit.

Hopefully there'll be a print edition at some point, as there was for The Composer Is Dead.

wha? the composer is dead isn't a play

That's true. I misread the bit about Handler having worked with Tony Taccone on both.
