"Lives of the Saints marks our seventh production of David Ives' work," Primary Stages artistic director Andrew Leynse said in a previous statement. "This collection of short plays, including three new pieces, is a mixture of humor, intellect, and farce and is a transformative step in Mr. Ives' mastery of the one-act form. We are thrilled to be working again with David and his long-time collaborator, director John Rando."
