Directed by April Joy Purinton, this farcical comedy focuses on Prudence (Christina Boyington) and Bruce (Marc Rodriguez), two Manhattanites who are seeking stable romantic relationships with the help of their psychiatrists, each of whom suggests the patient place a personal ad.
Their first meeting proves to be disastrous. Bruce is a highly emotional bisexual who has a live-in lover, Bob (Bretton Harris) and tends to cry easily, a trait homophobic Prudence sees as a weakness.
The two report back to their respective therapists — libidinous Stuart (Vince Shatto), who once seduced Prudence, and eccentric Charlotte ( Tamara Lilly), who stumbles over the simplest of words, references the play “Equus” as a good source of advice, and interacts with Bruce and all her patients with the help of a stuffed Snoopy.
Due to the strong language and mature content, the play is rated R and is not suitable for all audiences.
Performances are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. today and Saturday, as well as Feb. 17, 18, 24, and 25.
Matinees will be performed at 2 p.m. Sunday, and at the same time on Feb. 19 and Feb. 26.
