FOURPLAY:
4 Comedies Of Seduction:
These comedies explore love and seduction with wit and affection. John Patrick Shanley’s tender play THE RED COAT showcases a teenage crush while Elaine Jarvik’s tart marital portrait DEAD RIGHT humorously dramatizes long-married love.
David Ives’ romp SURE THING reinvents the “pick-up” while Harold Pinter’s droll satire THE LOVER indicts marriage altogether. With Hugh Blewett, Ken Dillon, Mark Ninneman, Keigan Vannoy, Barbara Weber, Ericka Wade, Brooke Wegner and Jason Will. July 28-August 29, 2010 (5 weeks).

Evan Smith's wholly entertaining comedy
THE SAVANNAH DISPUTATION:
The author of REMEDIAL ENGLISH writes of two Southern sisters beset by a Baptist beautician intent on saving their souls, if not their hair color. One sister craftily convenes a dinner party with both the “Holy Roller” stylist and their own tippling parish priest. A divinely redemptive comedy. November 24, 2010-January 9, 1011 (7 weeks).
Gina Gionfriddo's cracked comic valentine
BECKY SHAW:
A hard-edged comedy with a soft-hearted center. A young couple sets up two friends on a blind date. This “good intention” paves the way for a “hellish” uproar for their marriage and rocks the lives of both couples. A mother from Hades completes the comic quintet. With Anne Miller, Joe Fransee and Christine Horgen. February 9-March 13, 2011 (5 weeks).
Luigi Pirandello's
RIGHT YOU ARE! (IF YOU THINK YOU ARE!):
A prickly puzzle about neighbors mystified, perplexed and finally driven to distraction by the arrival of a new family into their sedate village. The author of SIX CHARACTERS IN SEARCH OF AN AUTHOR tantalizes audiences with the question of “whose ‘truth’ can be believed?” A Rubik’s Cube of comedy! April 20-May 22, 2011 (5 weeks).
