The Cottage Opens at Gallery Theater
Gallery Theater of McMinnville, Oregon presents a whimsical romp which Entertainment Weekly called “…[a] sidesplitting screwball comedy…The Cottage is a fresh and fiercely fun play that’s firing on all cylinders, with Rustin’s excellent script.”
The Cottage opens on Friday, March 14, 2025. The opening night performance will be followed by a reception for patrons, cast, and the production team.
Staged in Gallery’s smaller “Arena Theater” and showing for only three weekends, Sandy Rustin’s script has been heralded as “positively delightful” and “effervescent.”
Sylvia and Beau find themselves in an English countryside cottage for their yearly rendezvous, and Sylvia knows this time it will be the beginning of their new life together. But when Beau demurs on a shared future, and their spouses arrive at the cottage, she realizes that this home-away-from-home is a refuge for determining a new path forward. With a tip of the hat to Noël Coward and sex comedies of the past, The Cottage offers a perfect showcase for six actors with endless laughs, hilarious twists, daring physical comedy, and a happy ending for lovers everywhere.
