Love, lies, and laughter collide behind closed doors. North Coast Repertory Theatre presents The Cottage, Sandy Rustin’s wickedly funny feminist farce that made its Broadway debut at the Helen Hayes Theater in 2023. Set in the English countryside in 1923, this side-splitting romp finds passion colliding with propriety as one woman’s decision to expose her own affair sends secrets, scandal, and screwball chaos spilling out of every room. As love, marriage, loyalty, and desire are called into question, The Cottage proves that betrayal has never been this much fun.

“Hilarious! You’ll laugh for two hours straight.” — Theatremania
“A sensational side-splitting screwball comedy!” — Entertainment Weekly
“Razor sharp and rip-roaringly fun.” — Around the Town Chicago

Shana Wride directs Josh Cahn* (Richard), Jacob Caltrider* (Clarke), Abby Leigh Huffstetler* (Dierdre), Katie Karel* (Sylvia), Taubert Nadalini* (Beau), and Lauren Weinberg* (Marjorie). Christopher M. Williams* is Stage Manager and Jay Brace is Production Assistant. The Design Team includes Sean Fanning (Set Design), Matt Novotny (Light Design), Shirley Pierson (Costume Design), Melanie Chen Cole (Sound Design), Zachary Elliott (Props Design), and Peter Herman (Hair &amp; Wig Design). Emmelyn Thayer is Dialect Coach. Crew includes Keelyn McDermott.

North Coast Repertory Theatre

An intimate evening with Ted Leitner, the legendary broadcasting voice of the San Diego Padres, Aztecs, Channel 8 Sports, KFMB-AM Radio and more: up-close, un-filtered, and un-scripted – just like he’s always been. “Uncle Teddy” shares hilarious and moving stories about SD sports legends including Tony Gwynn, Jerry Coleman, Junior Seau, Trevor Hoffman, Bill Walton and Ted Williams as he reflects on a 4-decades long career. Controversial, outrageous and hilarious, share the evening with a master-storyteller Ca-Rushing stories from his own life and career from PS 105 in the Bronx to becoming the most riveting sports voice San Diego has ever known. This time, there’s no game clock, no commercial break and apparently no one telling him to wrap it up. Ted pulls back the curtain on a lifetime behind the microphone, sharing stories, experiences, opinions and assorted observations that, for better or worse, could only come from Uncle Teddy. Co-producer Andy Stradberg states "for San Diego sports fans who could never get enough of Ted Leitner—and even for those who occasionally thought they’d had enough—Uncle Teddy is back!”
TED TALKS AND TALKS will occur on November 16 and 17, 2026 at 7:30pm. North Coast Repertory Theatre is located at 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach, CA 92075. Tickets: $45 | Seniors: $40 | Subscribers: $35. All tickets include the post-show dessert reception and book signing.
