Mary, Mary at Theatre Southwest

The titular character Mary is a compulsively wise-cracking magazine editor who uses her sense of humor to shield her insecurities, while her ex-husband Bob is an infuriatingly sensible publisher. Their marriage ended in divorce and they haven't seen each other in 9 months, but now Mary has been called back to Bob's apartment by their mutual friend and lawyer, Oscar, in the hopes that they can avert an audit by the IRS. Throw in Bob's young fiancée Tiffany; his old war buddy, the handsome and single film hero whose star is in decline, Dirk Winston; and one major snow storm—and we have the makings of a bouncy comedy!
