If your ex wanted to meet up again, would you? Previously engaged, Jada and Dallas reunite for dinner to hash out the good, the bad, and the ugly from their romantic past. Despite the intrusion of sassy waiters, complicated memories, and their best efforts to keep things casual, the estranged couple find themselves cornered by the truth. From playwright DOUGLAS LYONS (CHICKEN & BISCUITS) and director ZHAILON LEVINGSTON (CATS: THE JELLICLE BALL), this world premiere play is a hilarious and sweet open letter to love found, lost, and possibly reignited.

This new romantic comedy stars Tony Award®-winner KARA YOUNG (MCC’s ALL THE NATALIE PORTMANS, PURLIE VICTORIOUS), BIKO EISEN-MARTIN (MCC’s soft) and MICHAEL RISHAWN (AIN’T NO MO’).

PF: Young Frankenstein @ Elmwood Playhouse (Nyack, NY), through Saturday, September 28, 2024
