About the Show

A new comedy about love, relationships, and betrayal.

Two weeks before her wedding, Sylvia is confronted in her opulent, West Village apartment by her fiancé’s sexually confident mistress, Teddy. As their respective male partners arrive, the four charged lovers (and a pizza man) clash over love, lust, and intimacy in a comical prism of betrayal and psychological warfare.

Disappointing, Pointless, Slow, Uneven acting, Banal

See it if you enjoy small cast plays in an intimate space...and don't need much plot/char coherence. Script makes little sense, but actors try hard.

Don't see it if you want internal plot logic. Many discussions are tedious (endless talk by women about looks) and actions unconvincing. I didn't laugh.

Painful, Disappointing, Excruciating, Banal

See it if Marketed as a farce, but more a bad soap opera. 70 minutes felt like 100. Cliched and melodramatic... and painful.

Don't see it if You want to see a solid show with string performances and a smart script.

Critic Reviews (1)

“Billingsley is both the star and co-author of this wildly raucous, 21st century drawing room comedy...There are many laughs to be had in this play which has been directed and co-written by Thomas G. Waites. The four principle characters poke at each other and when there is a direct hit, the humor is very funny indeed...If every performance landed on broader caricatures, the result might further amplify the lunacy.”
