Group Rep at the Lonny Chapman Theatre presents If We Are Women by Joanna McClelland Glass. Author Jessica Cohen has just lost her longtime live-in lover, the one who "gets her" but not the father of her daughter. Her mother and her mother-in-law are visiting to comfort Jessica at her beach home. On the morning that her latest book appears in bookstores and she is packing up her lover's clothes, her daughter has yet to return from the previous night's date. As the three women wait for the teenager to return, they weigh the choices each of them have made in their own lives. Feelings of guilt and regret are punctuated by wry observations on sex, history, ideas and their past relationships. Once the younger woman arrives and disregards the wisdom imparted by her elders, one of her grandmothers remarks, "every time a kid is born we start from zero." Told with humor and great insight, this play explores race, class, nontraditional families and recognizing when we are happy. Sherry Netherland directs. Learn More

I was surprised to find a period drama from Mamet. Good acting, costumes and set were terrific.Written on Nov 09 2009

I saw this play in SF a few years ago & left unimpressed. Group Rep's staging & performance, however, was exceptionally memorable. The humor, evocative of Oscar Wilde's comedies, was droll, precise & unpretentious. If you like Mamet, or if you just like great theater go see this production!Written on Oct 19 2009

Saw the last performance before it closed but what the heck, I'll write this review anyway. It was a great piece of theatre. Well paced. Well acted. Well executed all around. Lia Sargent was especially good but all the actors were on the game. If they do this one anywhere else, it's worth it to see.Written on Nov 09 2009

Description
Boston Marriage by David Mamet
Directed by Lisa Wolpe
This is a comedy of clever refinement full of the awareness of the socio-political realities of a woman’s place in that earlier time.
