Anyone can tell you: there’s no place like New York if you want to experience truly great theater. But there is only one place in New York where you can see Paul Walker’s award-winning play, Ladies and Gents: the public bathrooms in Central Park’s Bethesda Terrace.

Ladies and Gents debuted in a Dublin restroom. A thriller about politicians and prostitutes in 1950s Dublin, its premiere yesterday in New York seems appropriate, given the recent controversy surrounding former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer and his alleged trysts with a high-dollar call girl.

According to a CBS3.com report, “The action takes place near the sinks and urinals; the audience stands, clustered in front of the row of stalls. Each of the play’s two acts runs simultaneously in both bathrooms; the audience splits in half and switches facilities at intermission.”
