About the Show

In this solo comedy, thirty-eight year old New Yorker Rachel Yardley's ticking biological clock propels her into doing something that goes against everything she believes in: online dating.

Challenged by her sister’s dare to meet 50 men in three months, Rachel rises to the occasion. While desperately speed dating at Starbucks, she questions her past choices in ex-boyfriends, abandonment issues with her father, and why the only unconditional love she has ever known is with her dog.

Disappointing, Slow, Some funny parts

See it if You like small theater,and you have time. Show is ok.

Don't see it if It on the three floor, you have to walk. It not very funny. Read more

Banal, Cliched, Disappointing, Overrated, Romantic

See it if You want to hear/learn about online dating experience in the city, expected to be more funny, hate to give a bad review but was dissapointed

Don't see it if One act / one actor play, hear details of depressing NY dating scene, (1 man for every 5 women???), hopeless 45 attempts of online dating

Critic Reviews (2)

"A vividly-detailed autobiography of a middle-aged woman who describes her past journeys and struggles in life...Plenty of humor along the way, but also quite a few sad moments...Not all the jokes landed, but there were plenty others that did, and the more emotional parts of the play certainly resonated...Kasper takes the audience with her on her journey with captivating energy...Elliot stages this show wonderfully."

"Kasper recounts how she staggered through an online dating death march of Mr. Wrongs. Her war stories are mostly horrifyingly funny...What keep '45 Coffee Dates' from being simply an elongated stand-up comedy routine are her stories that swerve into the heartbreaking...And just when it seems as if her comic misery will go on forever, the play swerves again, this time into a happy world where her dreams actually do come true. She earns them."
