LUNT AND FONTANNE: "THE CELESTIALS OF BROADWAY" were the most famous couple on Broadway in the first half of the twentieth century and were given the nickname the "celestials." A 21st century husband and wife team played the Lunts synonymous with a theatrical-marital partnership in which they joke that they've become the "Lunt and Fontanne of South Jersey".

The story is a tribute to this forgotten Broadway couple, an ode to acting, partnership, and marriage, and their undeniable love for the stage over Hollywood. Lynn Fontanne (Alison J. Murphy) and husband Alfred Lunt (Mark Edward Lang) embark on their journey from the 1920s through to the 1950s showcasing the highlights of their lives and matchless careers.

The play had a short run but the story about "The Celestials of Broadway" was interesting.
