RipCord

April 19 – May 11

Written by David Lindsay-Abaire

Directed by Karen McCarty

A sunny room on an upper floor is prime real estate in the Bristol Place Senior Living Facility, so when the cantankerous Abby is forced to share her quarters with new-arrival Marilyn, she has no choice but to get rid of the infuriatingly chipper woman by any means necessary. A seemingly harmless bet between the old women quickly escalates into a dangerous game of one-upmanship that reveals not just the tenacity of these worthy opponents, but also deeper truths that each would rather remain hidden.

Theresa Bedell is a successful reporter… Tony is attractive and funny… after a second date [Theresa is] convinced they have nothing in common and sees no point in continuing the relationship.

What at first seems like persistence on his part grows into obsession, and Theresa’s annoyance with Tony turns to terror as he begins to threaten her and those around her. Ultimately, Theresa must fight to save herself from being erased by Tony’s actions—actions that call into question the assumptions at the very heart of romantic pursuit.
