"Wrong Mountain" opened on Broadway January 13, 2000 and closed February 5, 2000.
The reviews have been mixed leaning towards positive.
One of the better reviews was CurtainUp's

Playbill earlier described the plot as:
"With touches of surrealism and hints of science fiction (a 40-pound, intestine eating worm and an intoxicating elixir called `lithia water' figure prominently in the plot), the story...concerns an utterly pretentious obscure poet [Rifkin], his ex-wife's new husband, a fabulously successful, lightweight playwright; a new-plays festival situated in the middle of nowhere, and the absolute horror and pleasure of unwanted, yet coveted, overnight success."
