MCC THEATER (Robert LuPone, Bernard Telsey, Artistic Directors; William Cantler, Associate Artistic Director; Blake West, Executive Director) opened their production of Tony Award-winner Michael Weller’s new play Fifty Words on October 1st, 2008.

The two character play co-stars Norbert Leo Butz and Elizabeth Marvel, and is directed by Austin PendletonFifty Words began performances at the Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street, NYC) on September 10 and continues through October 25.

In Fifty Words, something’s gone awry behind the idyllic façade of Jan and Adam’s Brooklyn brownstone.  At 9:10 p.m., they’re reveling in the freedom of having waved off their young son, Greg, to a neighborhood sleepover.  By 9:30 p.m., things have gone, well…way past awry.  Alternately funny and frightening, Fifty Words is an expansive look at modern marriage, as seen through the looking glass of one couple’s long night’s journey into day.
