Alley productions have been seen throughout the United States and abroad. Other highlights of the season include Donald Margulies's Pulitzer Prize - winning Dinner with Friends and The Devil's Disciple by George Bernard Shaw featuring the Alley Resident Company of actors. Through the use of an infrared listening system and headphones, Spanish-speaking patrons will be able to enjoy the show.
Availability is limited.
Ticket holders should alert the box office in advance to reserve the headphones. This outrageously chaotic comedy begins with a plan devised by Raymond Chandebise. She is the suspicious wife of Victor - Emmanuel Chandebise, whom she assumes must be having an affair, as he has recently been unable to fulfill his conjugal duties. When she asks her friend Lucienne to request a rendezvous with her husband, and he in turn asks his friend Romain Tournel to replace him at the rendezvous, a chain reaction of frenzied mistaken identities and misplaced jealousies begins.
