A play about a long-married couple seeking a divorce, sending their adult sons reeling. A quietly comic and sharp look at family expectations and reinvention.
Fifty years into their marriage, Bill and Nancy want a divorce. While they seem unfazed by the decision, their two adult sons are shaken to the core, forced to reexamine everything they thought they knew about their parents’ outwardly happy lives. In Bess Wohl’s emotional powder keg of a play, familial tensions are revealed and comedy is mined from the barbed comments that only people related to each other can launch.
RATING – PG-13
