The Nora Theatre Company presents David Rambo's The Lady With All The Answers, a riotous and touching play about advice columnist Ann Landers. Over the course of a long night in 1975 Chicago, "the lady with all the answers" for others grapples with a dilemma of her own. While revisiting favorite columns on such topics as nude housekeeping and the correct way to hang toilet paper, Ann composes the most important letter of her life.

Car Talk: The Musical!!! - Inspired by the Hit NPR Call-In Show

Inspired by the long-running hit NPR show Car Talk -- which is hosted by legendary (real-life) mechanics Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers -- comes the hilarious new musical comedy, Car Talk: The Musical!!! at Central Square Theater. A co-production of Underground Railway Theater and Suffolk University, the show was written by Suffolk faculty member Wesley Savick, with original music by Michael Wartofsky. In it, Rusty Fenders, the hapless owner of a lemon '93 Kia, falls in love with Miata C. LaChassis. She guides him to the Emerald Garage, home to the Wizard of Cahs (portrayed by the recorded, heavily accented voices of Click and Clack themselves). Like the radio show, it's a romantic comedy about being in love with your car -- and so, so much more. Learn More

A One-Woman play. The actress was talented, but the material was tedious. Made my head hurt so bad we left at intermission.

Very enjoyable - we were both drawn into this one-woman play within the first five minutes. There were a number of really funny moments plus we got to hear the fascinating backstory of a very prominent yet also very private advice columnist.

We thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The show was wonderful, as was the actress. It was our first time at the theater and were very pleased with the informality and intimacy of the setting. We really felt a part of the show. Thank you.

The show was really sweet and revealing. The actress, who I've seen in a number of plays, was a perfect choice and brought 'real life' to her portrayal. Anyone, even if you're remotely interested in Ann Landers, will enjoy the show ! And, EVERYTHING I've seen at the Central Square theater, from any / all of the theater companies that perform there, is always terrific. Great space and great performances ! I highly recommend those unfamiliar with the theater 'check it out'. They'll be 'converts' immediately !
