I HAD A PROFESSOR WHO USED TO SAY 'A HAPPY MARRIAGE WON’T GET YOU PAST CHAPTER FOUR.'
ABOUT THIS SHOW
You meet. You marry. You have kids. That’s the way it always goes. Or is it? What if your story changes? What would it cost? Another Marriage is an intimate and beautifully rendered portrait of an ever-evolving relationship that may never be quite finished. Ensemble member Kate Arrington’s playwriting debut upends time and the typical romantic comedy to explore the liabilities of falling in and out of love.
The role of Nick will be played by ensemble member Ian Barford June 15 - July 23, and ensemble member Tim Hopper July 24 - 30.
