Beyond Therapy: Christopher Durang's Farcical Comedy
- Full Price:
- $30.00
- Our Price:
- $15.00
The Jean Shelton Foundation presents Beyond Therapy, by Christopher Durang, a playwright famed for his outrageous and absurd comedy. Beyond Therapy centers around Prudence and Bruce, Manhattanites in therapy to turn around their poor track record with romance. Their therapists encourage them to place personal ads, leading to a disastrously funny first date between the two. As the two would-be romantics stumble toward a relationship with each other, it becomes increasingly clear that the therapists are more troubled than their patients. Beyond Therapy is Durang's most frequently produced play. Learn More

The show was a bit too "cheesy" for my taste. I am a psychotherapist and had a totally different picture in my mind of what the play would be like. There was too much over acting and too many over-written parts if you ask me. I thought the comedy should have been based on more realistic events, not outlandish "never gonna happen" shtick.Written on Mar 06 2006
On the positive side, the woman who plays Prudence is quite good.

Description
Beyond Therapy tells the story of Bruce and Prudence, both in psychotherapy and both neurotic, and their search for love. The play mines big laughs from such subjects as the cult of therapy, dating, pop culture, casual sex, and relationship commitment.
