Paul Rudnick’s new work is directed by Jay Roach.
HBO will air Paul Rudnick's new comedy Coastal Elites, directed by Jay Roach, on Saturday, September 12, at 8pm ET.
Originally conceived for the Public Theater, Coastal Elites leaped from stage to screen at the beginning of the pandemic and evolved in real time as the unprecedented events of 2020 unfolded. The film spotlights five distinct and impassioned points-of-view across the United States. When the shutdown forces these characters to cope in isolation, they react with frustration, hilarity and introspection.
Today, we bring you a clip of cast member Dan Levy as Mark Hesterman, a young actor in West Hollywood videoconferencing with his therapist at a moment of peak career and personal stress.
