In The Wings is a comedy written by Tony Award winner Stewart F. Lane. It was produced off-broadway at the Promenade Theater in New York city in 2005. Because the play is set in New York city in 1977, the costumes and sets become secondary characters. The off-broadway production included lots of bell bottoms, fringed vests and smiley faces. The play was first presented as a staged reading at The Revelation Theater starring Shannon Doherty and directed by Mr. Lane.
