But like all smart people, they are also searching for love, success, and identity in their own lives. Smart People brings these characters together in this sharp, witty play about social and sexual politics.

One night only, Monday, Jul 20 at 7pm on Zoom
Recently divorced and living in an old house in Iowa, Sharon (Kimberly Ridgeway) finds a sensible roommate like herself to make ends meet. But she quickly learns that Robyn (Pam Kingsley) is a fugitive of sorts, who couldn’t be further from the ladies in her book club. As both women become close, each recognizes in the other an overwhelming desire to transform her own life. But the only question is: what will be the price of that transformation. A dark comedy about what it takes to re-route your life—and what happens when the wheels come off.
