Politician Bill Pulver faces the cameras to stumble his way through a carefully crafted apology as his wife Judy stands stoically behind him...but what is she REALLY thinking? We are about to find out in Bruce Norris's wickedly funny, unpredictable play about a marriage burst apart by a sex scandal. From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Qualms and Clybourne Park, Domesticated is a scathing, wildly entertaining play that investigates gender politics, modern marriage and the sexual mysteries of the animal kingdom.

Domesticated features ensemble member Tom Irwin as Bill Pulver and venerable Chicago actress Mary Beth Fisher as his wife, Judy-the political couple torn apart by a very public sex scandal. Irwin has been an ensemble member since 1979, having performed in more than 50 Steppenwolf productions including The Grapes of Wrath, Balm in Gilead and The Seafarer. Fisher, a frequent performer at Goodman Theatre, most recently in Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, last performed at Steppenwolf in Dead Man's Cell Phone in 2008. Completing the Domesticated cast are Emily Chang, Esteban Andres Cruz, Meighan Gerachis, Rae Gray, Beth Lacke, Mildred Marie Langford, Melanie Neilan, Meg Thalken and Karen Woditsch.

The production team includes Todd Rosenthal (scenic design), Jenny Mannis (costume design), Ann G. Wrightson (lighting design), Rick Sims (sound design) and Jeff Sugg (projection design). Additional credits include Laura Glenn (stage manager) and Jessamyn Fuller (casting).

Domesticated was originally commissioned and produced by Lincoln Center Theater in 2013.
