A Play by A.R. Gurney
Directed by Gene Kahane

May 14-June 13 Long-married empty-nesters Greg and Kate adopt an abandoned street-smart mutt named Sylvia after the kids have grown up and moved out. But will Sylvia be a companion, a rival for affection, a distraction from life’s little dissatisfactions…or just a “bone of contention” between them? Through Sylvia’s eyes, we see how Greg and Kate deal with the hilarious complications and ultimately learn to welcome Sylvia into the family, reminding us that our hearts always have room for one more.

Featuring: Analisa Svehaug • Chris Ciabattoni • Leontyne Mbele-Mbong • Jamie Olsen
