Up With Romance
Written by Tom Moran
April 30th - 7:30pm
Finding love is one of the most thrilling things that can happen to a person. Looking for love can be thrilling too – but can also be challenging, disappointing, vexing, and downright maddening. “Up with Romance” is a set of nine short comedies that examine the highs and lows we encounter in the eternal quest for love and companionship, performed by an ensemble cast.
Over the course of the evening, characters you’ll recognize take tentative part in all the facets of relationships. From flirting with a stranger, through finding (and losing, and finding again) the right person, to engagement, marriage and divorce, “Up with Romance” is a step-by-step journey through the perils and promise of modern-day courtship. Set against backdrops ranging from a faux-Egyptian temple to a graveyard to an Orwellian dystopia, it’s a wide-ranging evening that’ll tickle your funny bone, take you back to some of your own experiences, and leave you with a smile on your face.
