Peter Dubois' latest New York smash it. This sharp and witty 2009 Pulitzer Prize finalist about a bad date gone bad is by
Gina Gionfriddo (After Ashley, "Law & Order). When a newly married couple fixes up two romantically challenged friends, crisis and comedy ensue in this hilarious new play that asks what we owe the people we love the most and the strangers who land on our doorstep. The New York Times calls
Becky Shaw, "Ferociously funny!" and, along with Entertainment Weekly and Time Out New York named the play one of the best of 2009.
