2010 Obie Award for Best New American Play and voted one of the top ten plays of 2009 by The New York Times, Time Out New York, and The New Yorker

Over the course of six weeks, five adults gather to explore themselves through the elusive and often hilarious medium of drama. Some of them are there to become stars, others to follow a long-lost dream, and some just yearn for a connection with their fellow classmates. Through a series of exercises, their teacher Marty leads them deeper into the sharing of their own stories. As the weeks pass, their real, offstage lives gradually infiltrate the classroom, revealing insights and transformations, both humorous and heartbreaking.

"What I love most about this play is that every time I read it, I find myself laughing out loud. It’s one of the most beautifully well written and humorous pieces of writing I have come across in a long time."
