Scandalous RomCom in 'Different Animals'

Abby Rosebrock is diving headfirst into the shark tank of New York theater with her new comedy, Different Animals, now playing at the Cherry Lane Theatre. Rosebrock began her career in comedy writing with the Upright Citizens Brigade, a New York improv theater, where she trained in sketch comedy performance. Different Animals not only marks Rosebrock's off-Broadway debut as both a playwright and an actress, but the production also marks the debut of her first-ever full-length work.

The play follows a friendship that develops between two RomCom-obsessed women floundering through their twenties in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Jessica is cheating on her much older husband, Leo, with a local pastor named Will while Molly (played by Rosebrock herself) becomes obsessed with Jessica's husband and slowly reveals herself as a mentally unstable sociopath. Jessica, Molly, and Leo soon find themselves living a polygamous lifestyle as one big dysfunctional family.
