Blissful and Benighted: Dispatches From the War of the Sexes

Whatever wars may capture the headlines, the one that still fires the greatest passions is the battle of the sexes. In 'Couples,' an evening of eight one-acts being presented at the WorkShop Theater Company ... Mr. Orloff moves the action in unexpected ways to create real dramatic tension ... There are wildly imaginative flights .... both funny and poignant.

About Show: 

Couples

It's a treat for the audience...each of these eight pieces has its own distinct voice, and shows Orloff's great range as a writer...He manages to address some heavy issues that affect relationships...infusing each with a delicate balance of humor and gravity...all 16 actors are well-cast and entertaining...a lighthearted evening that is fun and thought-provoking.
