Photo Flash: Mauricio Perez Joins Off-Broadway's MISS ABIGAIL'S GUIDE

Perez, who most recently appeared Off-Broadway in the long-running musical Altar Boyz, will assume the role of Miss Abigail's sexy assistant and faithful sidekick, Paco -- a role he originated in the show's pre-New York engagement in Tampa, Florida last spring.

Manuel Herrera, who debuted in the role when it opened in New York last October, plays his final performance as Paco on Sunday, January 30 at the Downstairs Cabaret Theater at Sofia's (221 West 46th Street, next to the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre).

Starring celebrated artist and television icon Eve Plumb ("The Brady Bunch"), MISS ABIGAIL'S GUIDE TO DATING, MATING AND MARRIAGE is written by Ken Davenport (Altar Boyz, My First Time, The Awesome 80s Prom) and Sarah Saltzberg (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee), and is based on Abigail Grotke's popular book - the comedy's namesake -that promises "classic advice for contemporary dilemmas."

Miss Abigail is the most sought-after relationship expert to the stars - think Dr. Ruth meets Emily Post - and in MISS ABIGAIL'S GUIDE TO DATING, MATING AND MARRIAGE, she and her sexy sidekick Paco travel the globe teaching her outrageously funny "how-tos" on dating, mating and marriage.

Davenport directs as Miss Abigail takes you back to a simpler time, before booty calls and speed-dating, back when the divorce rate wasn't 50 percent and Fidelity was more than an investment firm.

During this 90-minute comedy, audiences are guaranteed to laugh-out-loud and learn a thing or two . . . like how to have a perfect kiss (it's all about lip position) . . . what you should and should not talk about on a date (don't mention your troll doll collection) . . . and how to let a man think he wears the pants!
