MILL HALL — The Millbrook Playhouse has kicked off its 63rd season by transforming the intimate Poorman Cabaret into the world’s most exclusive (and bizarre) shopping mall. After opening the summer slate last week, Jonathan Tolins’ comedy “Buyer & Cellar” will continue its run through Saturday.

What’s a struggling L.A. actor to do? For Alex More, the answer is taking a job that is literally “beneath” him: working in the private, rustic-village-style shopping mall located in the basement of Barbra Streisand’s Malibu estate. When Streisand wanders downstairs to “shop,” an absurd, hilarious, and surprisingly touching relationship develops. Part biting satire and part sparkling love letter to a legendary diva, “Buyer & Cellar” is a fictionalized exploration of the price of fame and the delightful oddity of fan culture.

To open this milestone season, Millbrook has welcomed Jackson Pavlik back to take on this challenging one-person tour de force. Pavlik has become a beloved staple of the Millbrook family, most recently dazzling audiences as the buttoned-up Wadsworth in “Clue” and the electrifying Frank-n-Furter in “The Rocky Horror Show.”

The production is guided by director Shannon Agnew, whose creative influence has been a cornerstone of Millbrook’s success for years. Audiences will remember her work on stage in “Every Brilliant Thing,” “Sidekicked” and “The Little Mermaid,” and her directorial work on “Camelot,” “Escape to Margaritaville,” “Beauty and the Beast,” and the record-breaking, sold-out run of “Mamma Mia!”
