Description

Threepenny Theater Co. presents A.R. Gurney's dog-friendly comedy SYLVIA, opening OCT. 4. 'Greg is a restless empty-nester, tired of his job in finance, looking for meaning in his life. Sylvia is an exuberant labradoodle, astray in Central Park, looking for a new home. When they meet, it is love at first sight. But his wife Kate, a busy rising star in the public school system, is looking forward to some independence now that the kids are gone, and is less than thrilled by the clever and coquettish canine who slobbers, sits on her couch, and distracts Greg from their marriage. Sylvia exerts such a charismatic pull that Kate’s friends are appalled, the marriage counselor advocates divorce, and even Greg’s new dog-owner friend warns him of the splintering effect a dog can have on the relationship between husband and wife. It is only when Greg is prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice that Kate is able to see Sylvia not as a threat, but as a new member of her family. A.R. Gurney’s Sylvia is a smart, silly, sophisticated, and occasionally salty comedy about relationships, nature, and growing older.' Sylvia runs for two weekends: OCT 4-6 and 11-13. FRI and SAT @ 7pm, SUN @ 2pm. Tickets, as well as additional info, are available at https://www.threepennytheater.com/.../sylvia-by-a-r... with discounts for STUDENTS, SENIORS, and VETERANS.
