(MONTCLAIR, NJ) -- Cue one passionate but never fully satisfying love affair between Henry and Annie. That's the premise behind The Real Thing by Tom Stoppard, which is being presented by Studio Players this June.

Performances take place June 9, 10, 16, 17, 23, 24 at 8:00pm; June 11, 18 at 3:00pm at Studio Playhouse (14 Alvin Place) in Montclair, New Jersey. Tickets are available for purchase online.
