Previews August 10-12 at 8pm, Opening night August 13 at 8pm, Performances August 16-September 4, Tues-Thurs at 7:30pm, Fri-Sat at 8pm, Sunday at 4pm, Saturday matinee Sep 3 at 2pm
At one riotous lunch, Mrs. Clandon, a famed feminist author and lecturer, is accidentally reunited with her estranged husband, while her high-minded eldest daughter tries to stave off a smooth-talking dentist's advances. Originally set at a stuffy seaside resort, director Lisa Peterson moves Shaw's off-beat comedy out of the drawing room and into the Bay Area! Identities are confused, ideals are challenged, and mischief is afoot in this turn-of-the-century romantic farce. What could possibly happen? As a wise waiter continuously, and hilariously, observes, "You never can tell!"
