(FREEHOLD, NJ) -- Center Players explores love, marriage and infidelity with a production of Neil Simon’s Last of the Red Hot Lovers weekends through October 30. The play launches their 2022-23 season at Center Playhouse, 35 South St, in downtown Freehold. Photographer John Posada was on hand to take photos.

First produced on Broadway in 1969, the play centers around Barney Cashman, a married, middle-aged restaurant owner who wants to be part of the sexual revolution before it passes him by. Taking advantage of his mother's empty New York City apartment, he invites various women over for romantic trysts over the course of three afternoons, but his bumbling efforts result in uproarious situations.

The comedy is be directed by Michael Tota (Wall, NJ), who most recently helmed California Suite and Lend Me a Tenor at Center Playhouse.  Mafalda Cavanaugh (Manalapan), who co-directed A Year With Frog and Toad there, serves as assistant director.
