and Brandon Pearson) as
they adapt from the bliss
of their honeymoon to the
limitations of marriage.
To survive, the couple
must navigate each other’s
different personalities —
Corie a free spirit, Paul a
practical lawyer — in the
top floor apartment of a
defunct brownstone in
New York City. Their new
life has a lot in store for
them, including a seemingly endless flight of stairs
to their front door, a broken skylight letting in city
wind and an age-delirious
eccentric neighbor by the
name of Victor Velasco (Ed
Huckabee).
“Barefoot in the Park”
promises a night of constant hilarity. The play
follows two newlyweds
Corie and Paul Bratter Add in Corie's overly cau(played by Emily Miller tious mother Ethel Banks
(Kimberly Jones) and the
Bratters are put into extreme
(and
extremely
funny)
circumsta nces
where they must learn to
live with each other’s
quirks, one zany situation
after another, if they want
happily ever after to last
more than a week. The
show is arranged through
Samuel French, Inc. and
directed by Kaylee Smith.
Ticket prices range from
$8 to $12 and are reserved
seating. Tickets can be
purchased online or at the
Box Office. Group rates
