Playwrights Horizons
The New York Premiere of a play by Jordan Harrison (Doris to Darlene, a cautionary valentine; Futura). Directed by Obie Award winner Anne Kauffman (The Thugs; Stunning; This Wide Night). Katha and Ryu have become allergic to their 21st-century lives. After they meet a charismatic man from a community of 1950s reenactors, they forsake cell phones and sushi for cigarettes and Tupperware parties. In this compulsively authentic world, Katha and Ryu are surprised by what their new neighbors -- and they themselves -- are willing to sacrifice for happiness. "Piquantly funny, cleverly executed, and darkly playful." -- Charles Isherwood, The New York Times Featuring Trent Dawson
(The Herbal Bed, “As the World
Turns”); Tony Award nominee Marin
Ireland (Blasted; Reasons to Be Pretty); Peter
Kim (Thoroughly Modern Millie); Pedro
Pascal (Some Men); Jeanine Serralles
(Stunning). Directed by Anne
Kauffman (This
Wild Night; The Thugs).
