ROMANCE by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Mamet
Produced by Kinetic Theatre Co.
July 18-August 2, 2014 at Alloy Studios
Mamet meets the Marx Brothers in this uproarious, take-no-prisoners courtroom comedy! A romantic rendezvous in sunny Hawaii has gone awry and the wanna-be Casanova, a Jewish chiropractor, finds himself in a whole world of trouble. His anti-semitic defense attorney thinks he's a liar. The prosecutor is having a domestic squabble with his lover who shows up at court. It's hay fever season and the Judge is popping antihistamines. And all the while, a Middle East peace conference is taking place.....
"It made me weep with delight....Romance is funny. Extremely funny." - Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal
"A giddy, glorious, bad-taste valentine....the most skillfully constructed farce since Michael Frayn's Noises Off." - Newsday
