COOLIDGE CORNER SCREENING OF BOB & CAROL & TED & ALICE

Monday, November 14 at 7pm

Tickets: coolidge.org/films/bob-carol-ted-alice (Huntington subscribers receive discount with code)

After returning to Los Angeles from a group therapy session, documentary filmmaker Bob Sanders (Robert Culp) and his wife, Carol (Natalie Wood), find themselves becoming vigilante couples counselors, offering unsolicited advice to their best friends, Ted (Elliott Gould) and Alice Henderson (Dyan Cannon). Not wanting to be rude, the Hendersons play along, but some latent sexual tension among the four soon comes bubbling to the surface, and long-buried desires don't stay buried for long. After the film, join us for a post-screening conversation with Huntington dramaturg Charles Haugland and Bedroom Farce actress Patricia Hodges.

Patricia Hodges plays Delia in the Huntington's production of Bedroom Farce. She previously appeared at the Huntington in Les Blancs. Broadway credits include Born Yesterday, A Man for All Seasons, Dancing at Lughnasa, and Six Degrees of Separation. Her Off Broadway credits include Communicating Doors, Rose's Dilemma (Manhattan Theatre Club), On the Verge (dir. Garland Wright), The Normal Heart (The Public Theater/NYSF), A Loss of Roses, and Surviving Grace. She appeared in the national tour of Nicholas Hytner's Lincoln Center Theater production of Carousel and toured two years with John Houseman's The Acting Company. Regional credits include Woman in Mind, Blithe Spirit, Hay Fever, The Cherry Orchard, The Seagull, and The Night of the Iguana (Guthrie Theater); and Pride and Prejudice and Three Tall Women (Baltimore Center Stage).
