Theatre: Marriage of Bette&Oct 25, 2001 at 8 p.m.

The Marriage of Bette and Boo, written by Christopher Durang, and directed by Robert Gardner. In his "ferociously funny, yet devastatingly sad family album," America's most brilliant satirist wickedly skewers his own family's dysfunctions (and perhaps some of ours) before ultimately embracing their pain and humanity. The Marriage of Bette and Boo reveals Christopher Durang at his funniest and his most serious, and the original New York production (with Joan Allene, Mercedes Ruehl, and Olympia Dukakis) won him an Obie Award.
