This biting comedy about feminism, choices, and love was a Pulitzer Prize finalist that the New York Times called “intensely smart and immensely funny,” and caused Variety to hail the playwright as a “genius.” After grad school, Catherine and Gwen chose opposite paths. Catherine built a career as a rockstar academic, while Gwen built a home with her husband and children. Decades later, unfulfilled in polar opposite ways, each woman covets the other’s life, commencing a dangerous game of musical chairs – the prize being Gwen’s husband. With searing insight and trademark wit, this comedy is an unflinching look at gender politics in the wake of 20th-century feminist ideals.
