(UPPER MONTCLAIR, NJ) -- Jake’s Women by Neil Simon comes to Studio Playhouse in Upper Montclair. In this play from the comic legend, Jake, a novelist who is more successful with fiction than with life, faces a marital crisis by daydreaming about the women in his life. Performances are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sundays at 3:00pm from March 24 through April 8.
The wildly comic and sometimes moving flashbacks played in Jake's mind are interrupted by visitations from the many women in his life: his revered first wife, his daughter, his sister, his analyst, his current wife (who is leaving Jake for another man), and a prospective third wife.
Jake’s Women is directed by E. Dale Smith-Gallo and Claudia Budris, and stage managed by Samantha Silver.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $17 for students and seniors; discounts available for groups of 20 or more that prepay. Opening night tickets are buy 1, get one 1 free. Tickets can be purchased online or by calling 973-744-9752.
