BECKY'S NEW CAR

by Steven Dietz; directed by Virginia Reed

August 2 to September 9 , 2018

Have you ever been tempted to flee your own life?

Restless, married, and middle-aged, Becky is an office-manager of a small car dealership who experiences a complicated mid-life crisis when a handsome millionaire arrives to buy a large number of cars as gifts for his employees.

On a classic mistaken-identity premise, playwright Steven Dietz has constructed a warmly humorous and nimble romantic farce that doesn’t oversell itself, or ever sell its American Everywoman protagonist short. Dietz has created a comedy of modern manners…one that derives as much power from its humanity as its fine-tuned craftsmanship.

BECKY'S NEW CAR is that perfect blend of hilarious comedy and substantial weight, a story about choices and consequences that could believably happen to anyone.
