Synopsis
It’s girls’ night out at the Kelvin Players Studio Theatre in Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Mamet’s Boston Marriage.
This play is a wickedly sharp drawing room comedy about two fashionable, upper-class women embroiled in a “Boston marriage”, a Victorian euphemism for a long-term, intimate relationship between two unmarried, financially independent women.
Called “…one of the funniest American comedies in years,” by the New York Post, Boston Marriage is a wildly witty, biting satire about barely repressed desire, hostility between social classes, and very enjoyable vulgarity.
