From the show:
Everyone remembers their first kiss…and second…and maybe their fifth? This bold new comedy reveals the truths about life, love and…sex. Written and performed by Lois Robbins, L.O.V.E.R. portrays one woman’s confessions of what goes on behind closed doors and between the sheets. Directed by Karen Carpenter (Love, Loss, and What I Wore), L.O.V.E.R. is the new play for anyone who’s found love or is still searching.
