Reception: A Staged Reading

Stagecraft presents a staged reading of a brand new play...

RECEPTION by Christopher Bonewitz

At a wedding upstate, Mark — despite the best efforts of his best friend, Avery, who thinks he should get over himself and make some intimate mistakes — despairs of being with Jessica without becoming something he’s not. Meanwhile, Avery’s wife, Monica, despairs of ever finding a way to get her husband to stand up to their nine-year-old daughter. How alike must two personalities be for love to blossom between them? Can spouses find a way out of long-rutted arguments, or is marriage just a Sisyphean hell in which escape is as impossible as progress? Four friends try to determine where they’ve gone wrong in time to get back on the dance floor for Mr. Brightside.
