The Pear Theatre

In this sparkling comedy of manners, two former lovers find themselves honeymooning with new spouses in adjoining rooms—only to discover that their passion for each other hasn’t dimmed. As they abandon convention for a reckless reunion, they expose the absurdities of polite society and the fragile structures that hold it together. With razor-sharp wit and irresistible charm, the play asks whether civility is merely a performance—and whether love is ever meant to be tamed.&nbsp;&nbsp;
