Max is traveling every week for work as a consultant. Her husband, Paul, works from home writing. He isn’t happy with all her travel which leads to him having an affair. Soon after this comes to light, they decide to make some big changes. He will become a minister and she will go to a homemaking school to learn how to be the best wife she can be.
Anna Ouyang Moench (Severance, Beef) has written a truly hilarious play. It expertly pokes fun at the homemaking school, which is based on a real place in Fort Worth, TX. This production is expertly done with a fantastic set and on point comedic timing that had the audience laughing uncontrollably!
Joe Edward Metcalfe (Southern Gothic, Recipe for Disaster) displays an impressive range of emotions as Paul. Brittany Burch (The Locusts) is excellent as Max being quite confused and out of place at the homemaking school. Kirsten Fitzgerald (Swing State, Mary Page Marlowe) is strong and powerful as the lead instructor at the school. Alexandra Chopson is so sweet and innocent as the enthusiastic student at the school. Adam Shalzi (Trouble in Mind) is perfectly awkward and funny as the husband to be.
