With shows such as Robert Askins' Hand to God, Caryl Churchill's Cloud 9, Albee's The Goat or, Who Is Sylvia?, Ibsen's Peer Gynt, and now Sarah Ruhl's How to Transcend a Happy Marriage, Black Box Performing Arts Center is quickly making a name for itself as the area's premiere destination for immersive and cutting-edge plays. How to Transcend a Happy Marriage is the second main stage show of 2019, following the NJ premiere of Significant Other by Joshua Harmon.

How to Transcend a Happy Marriage - presented in special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc. - is hailed as "a subversive enchantment. It is part absurd domestic serio-comedy, part erotic magic realism, unflinching about taboos and about questioning that, just maybe, monogamy isn't enough" (Newsday). What starts as a dinner party ends in four friends questioning marriage and love when they are introduced to the alluring and polyamorous Pip. The show features the talents of Brian Aria, Sara Brown, Shari Cohen, Isaac J. Conner, Cassandra Guglielmo, Josh Olumide, Lisa Tiger, and Daniel Yaiullo. The show is directed by Matt Okin and designed by Steve Eiman.

The Black Box Performing Arts Center (home of Black Box Studios) continues to emerge as the Tri-State area's premiere destination for both cutting-edge professional theater and collaborative performing arts education - in the heart of Teaneck, NJ- just a quick ride over the George Washington Bridge.
