Different Stages to Premiere WHEN WE ARE MARRIED Image

Different Stages continues its 2017- 2018 season with J.B. Priestley's When We Are Married. The Helliwells, the Parkers and the Soppitts are highly respected pillars of their community... but not for much longer. Married on the same day in the same chapel, they gather to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. The celebrations are short-lived when they discover the vicar wasn't licensed, and they are actually... not married. In fact, they have been living in sin for 25 years.

When We Are Married will open on Friday, January 12 and run until Friday, February 2, 2018.

Thursdays - Saturdays | 7:30pm
