SYNOPSIS
Set at the turn of the 20th Century, David Mamet’s 1999 play focuses on a “Boston marriage” - a relationship between two females, Anna and Claire, that involves both physical and emotional intimacy.
An incisive and witty satire, Boston Marriage highlights both repressed desire and class hostility while it debunks Victorian pretensions and hypocrisies.
Mixed with humour and nuance, it aligns with a thoroughly Wildean world as it explores the negotiations, conflicts, compromises and reconcilations that arise - with hilarious outcomes.
