In Performance: Carla Gugino of ‘A Kid Like Jake\'

Daniel Pearle's new play “A Kid Like Jake” is a drama about a young couple (Carla Gugino and Peter Grosz) and their attempts to get their 4-year-old son into a good school while coming to terms with the boy's desire to dress as Cinderella and the Little Mermaid. In this scene, Ms. Gugino reflects on the differences between fantasy and reality as she watches Disney's “Cinderella” one night. The show continues through July 14 at LCT3's Claire Tow Theater.

Recent videos in this series include Steven Pasquale singin g “I Never Knew” from the new musical “Far From Heaven,” at Playwrights Horizons, and Kate Mulgrew and Kathleen Chalfant in a scene from Jenny Schwartz's new play “Somewhere Fun,” which recently closed at the Vineyard Theater.
