You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up! at Civic Center of Greater Des Moines

After 13 years of marriage, writer-actors- and real life married couple Annabelle Gurwitch (“Dinner and a Movie,” Fired!) and Jeff Kahn (“The Ben Stiller Show,” Forty Year Old Virgin) have adapted their hilarious often moving memoir, You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up for the stage. In their 70-minute tour de force, YOU SAY TOMATO, I SAY SHUT UP takes a humorous look back at their years together as a couple. At points, their relationship seemed doomed by their opposing personalities. But after trials and tribulations they learned to navigate the conflicts that come with romance, money, and children by embracing each other’s differences, taking on parenting as a competitive sport, and dropping out of couple’s therapy. Their delightfully crazy lifestyle has managed to keep their relationship intact, up-ending every idea you ever had about living “happily ever after.”
