MATT & BEN Celebrates Two-Year Run with Brattle Theatre Shows Image

LL Production Company's production of Matt & Ben, written by Mindy Kaling (The Office) and Brenda Withers, is celebrating the end of a two-year run with two nights of performances at The Brattle Theatre.

After a continuous sold-out run at The Riot Theatre in Jamaica Plain and a limited run in New Orleans, Matt & Ben will play again at 40 Brattle Street in Cambridge on December 5th and 6th at 7:30pm, the same night as Good Will Hunting's 20th anniversary.

The play takes audiences through a fantastic journey of what if the screenplay of Good Will Hunting fell out of the sky and into Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's lap. Matt and Ben spend one long Saturday in Somerville fighting, reminiscing, and hallucinating a lot more than normal when confronted with the screenplay they already know will change their lives. Matt & Ben is one wicked funny show that will make an audience feel like they're right in the same living room as these young Boston boys (played by girls).

Matt & Ben features Lauren Robinson of Somerville, in the title role of Matt, and Libby Schap of Chelsea, playing the other half of this bromance, Ben. Joining them at The Brattle Theater are production manager Norma Heller of Brighton and lighting and sound designers Tim Fairley of Chelsea and Dan Chapman of Somerville.

Produced by LL Production Company, a company focused on highlighting funny women. Matt & Ben has been well received during its monthly performances at The Riot Theater, with audiences calling it "hilarious" and "perfect for any fan of Matt and Ben or Good Will Hunting."

Shows are December 5th and 6th at 7:30pm, Tickets $20. Tickets for all performances are now on sale. Tickets available for $20 online at www.brattlefilm.org.
