Sussex Following six sold-out performances at the Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery, The Illustrious Theatre Company will take its production of Neil Simon’s romantic comedy, “Last of the Red Hot Lovers,” to the Tri-State Actors Theater in Sussex for two final performances. “Last of the Red Hot Lovers” opened to rave reviews on Broadway in 1969 starring James Coco, Linda Lavin, Doris Roberts, and Marcia Rodd. It won the 1970 Tony Award for Best Play and went on to play 706 performances. In the play, Barney Cashman, a middle-aged married nebbish, wants to join the sexual revolution of the late 60s before it’s too late. Joe Barra of Pine Bush portrays Barney in ITC’s production, with Victoria Ford, Cindy Rea, and Mary Lee Shorr portraying the three women who come into Barney’s life. The performances at Tri-State Actors Theater will be Friday, March 9 and Saturday, March 10 at 8 p.m. Tickets can be purchased in advance by calling the theatre at 973-875-2950, or at the door if tickets are available.
