Los Angeles –February, 2024 – The award-winning SkyPilot Theatre Company is presenting a special engagement of the critically acclaimed A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Divorce, with the original cast returning. The three performances will run Valentine’s weekend, February 14-16 at The 905 Cole Theatre in Hollywood. Tickets are $45 with a special Valentine’s Day ticket package available. Visit SkyPilotTheatre.com to purchase.
A Funny Thing …, written by Jeff Gould and directed by Marc Antonio Pritchett, introduces three couples, all going through difficult divorces, as they anxiously and frustratingly wait in a room at a courthouse for an appointment with a mediator. Conversations begin, details of each of their troubled marriages are revealed and they eventually learn more about themselves and their relationships in just hours than they have in years of matrimony.
The returning, original, Broadway World Award nominated cast includes Anthony Backman, Ian Nemser, Marie Pettit, Corbin Timbrook, Bri Ana Wagner, and Laura Walker.
Jeff Gould has written many plays that have been produced to great acclaim and success, the most recent being Love, S*x, and Misery which was co-written by his son Jake. His play It's Just S*x played Off Broadway in New York, as well as many other cities and countries, including combined runs of over 3 years in LA. One of his other plays, "The Marriage Zone", ran for over 9 months in LA and was awarded "Best writer of an original play" at the 2018 Valley Theatre Awards. It also just completed runs in Sao Paulo, Brazil and Warsaw, Poland. Gould is also a journalist, actor and professional poker player.
SkyPilot will be remounting The Marriage Zone in the Spring as well as their annual One-Act Festival in the fall.
