Your 20s are supposed to be glorious. In reality, they're the worst. Three is a coming-of-age story about three young women finding validation, struggling against loneliness, and losing everything. It's about friendship and independence and death and adulthood. "You've heard of the Bechdel Test. This play is about three women in conflict with each other, and it has nothing to do with a man. Three is about their relationships with each other", says playwright Emily Kaye Lazzaro.
The cast features Tasia Jones as Sam, Kelly Chick as Diane, AND Sarah Elizabeth Bedard as Jenni. A. Nora Long directs, and the creative team includes Shelley Barish (Scenic Design), Amanda Ostrow (Costume Design), Ian W. King (Lighting Design) and Andrew Duncan Will (Sound Design). The production stage manager is Lauren Annese.Emily Kaye Lazzaro is a playwright and actor based in Boston. She holds a BFA in Theatre Arts and an MFA in Playwriting from Boston University.

Three is the third project undertaken by Boston Public Works, a playwright-driven theater collective that?s forgoing the traditional routes for play development by producing their own plays and leaving a road-map for like-minded playwrights to follow.

Seinuk, Emily Kaye Lazzaro, Jess Foster, Kevin Mullins, Jim Dalglish, and Laura Neubauer. They will disband after all of the playwright's' works have premiered.
