What’s a crotchety gal to do when she gets her room just the way she likes it but her new roommate won’t stop beaming sunshine and rainbows 24/7? Make a bet to force her out, that’s what!
In David Lindsay-Abaire hilarious play, Ripcord, we get to know Abby and Marilyn, two ladies assigned to the same room in a senior living facility. Abby wants peace and quiet, and Marilyn just wants the bed by the window. Marilyn and Abby begin a campaign of one-upping the other, trying to win the bet, with aides and family members getting pulled into the shenanigans as the story progresses. In the end, we all get to see a play with a lot of heart, and a lot of laughs.
