Fans of the TV show Desperate Housewives will get a special treat when actor James Denton (a.k.a. Mike Delfino) takes the stage in Park Square’s production of David Lindsay-Abaire’s Tony-nominated play. As it happens, Denton’s character in the play is also named Mike, but this time he’s a doctor from South Boston whose past catches up with him in the form of an old girlfriend with a big mouth.
