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

Very good. Some of the actors kept forgetting their lines, which is highly unusual for the theatre's performances. Get their early, parking is not that great.Written on Feb 08 2008

It was a great play. Not that funny, but suspensful enough to make the 2 hours FLY by without me looking at my watch once. THe actors where very good and the story is unique, I liked it.Written on Feb 04 2008

Description
Written by Art Shulman (The Rabbi & The Shiksa, Boxcar & Eugenia, Sex Is Good For You), directed by Kristina Lloyd (Endgame).
Jesse Morgan returns to New York City 18 years after absconding with cash from his employer. Now very rich, he stays in a suite in the luxurious Knickerbocker Arms, and calls together several “friends’ from his past, including his ex-wife, his ex-best friend, his former employer, and a street person. He offers $2 million to two of them, but there’s a catch. The “friends” have to select which two of them receive the money. And most of them hate each other.
The situation is turned topsy-turvy when an unexpected person suddenly shows up in the midst of the group deciding who gets the money.
