Neil LaBute Presents The Grand Illusion: Tales of American Couples

Wed, Dec 3 at 7 pm Peter Jay Sharp Theatre $27; Members $25

There is arguably no more creative voice on the topic of modern relationships than that of playwright (Reasons to be Pretty, The Shape of Things), filmmaker (Lakeview Terrace, In the Company of Men) and short story writer (“Seconds of Pleasure”) Neil LaBute. He introduces three stories about relationships by John Cheever, Raymond Carver, and a story of his own. Stories will be performed by Andrew McCarthy (Pretty in Pink) and Maura Tierney (News Radio and E.R.).
