Boston Marriage

Anna (played by Cicely Binford) and Claire (played by Lisa Skrypichaiko) are two bantering, scheming “women of fashion” who have lived together on the fringes of upper-class society.  Anna has just become the mistress of a wealthy man, from whom she has received an enormous emerald and an income to match. Claire, meanwhile, is infatuated with a respectable young lady and wants to enlist the jealous Anna’s help for an assignation.

As the two women exchange barbs and take turns in tormenting Anna’s hapless parlour maid Catherine (played by Amy Russotti), Claire’s young inamorata suddenly appears, setting off a crisis that put both the valuable emerald and the women’s futures at risk….

Come and enjoy the almost Wildean wit of playwright David Mamet and the sharp direction of Eliot McCann as these three women navigate their way through the minefields that are relationships.
