/"The Roommate/" at Everyman Theater runs through November 27, 2016. Tickets and information: http://bit.ly/2dWsQ0D
A mash-up of "Thelma and Louise/" and "The Odd Couple," this hilarious coming-of-age story about a middle-aged woman written by acclaimed playwright Jen Silverman premiered at the Humana Festival of New American Plays by Storm in 2015. When Sharon, a lonely divorcee from Iowa, looks for a roommate and a change of pace in her quiet life, she meets Robyn, a mysterious vegan transplant from the Bronx whose secret past threatens to inflame the small world by Sharon. The women's incompatible personalities and hidden talents explode to reveal hysterical and unintended consequences, providing "a comforting reminder that it is never too late to completely rebuild every facet of our lives that we wish to change."
