Five Women Wearing the Same Dress Opens Friday, Nov. 14
Performances are selling out quickly for this dark, funny, and irreverent play by award-winning writer Alan Ball.
The Ridgefield Theater Barn is excited to present the dark comedy, Five Women Wearing the Same Dress, beginning November 14th. Written by Alan Ball, the award-winning writer of American Beauty, Six Feet Under, and True Blood, the play will run Friday and Saturday evenings at 8pm through December 6th, with Sunday matinees at 2pm November 23rd and 30th.
Directed by Debbie Levin, who most recently helmed the critically-acclaimed All My Sons at the Theater Barn, the play features Kim Bova, Anya Caravella, Rachel Dalton, Kristin Gagliardi, Paulette Layton, and Darren Palmer.
Introducing us to five very different bridesmaids who come together at a Knoxville, TN wedding, we quickly realize these women have very little regard for the bride. However, they all have a common acquaintance in the careless, callous Tommy Valentine, a one man heart-wrecking crew who challenges their hopes of having a meaningful relationship. They’ve all escaped the wedding reception and come together in the maid of honor’s bedroom where they joyously share this common bond in a wickedly funny, irreverent and touching celebration of the women’s spirit.
