(WEST WINDSOR, NJ) -- Pegasus Theatre Company presents Human Error from September 21-30 at the West Windsor Arts Center. The play by Eric Pfeffinger asks: What does it take for people on opposite sides of the political spectrum to see past their differences and even become friends? According to Human Error, it takes a blundering fertility doctor and a case of mistaken identity, which force two couples to face an absurd situation together.
Madelyn and Keenan—socialist-leaning, NPR listening, blue-state liberals—discover their embryos have been mistakenly implanted in Heather. To make matters worse, Heather and Jim are Christian, NRA card-holding, red-state conservatives. Faced with this case of “mistaken fertility,” the couples navigate their way through a tumultuous nine months of culture clash and hilarity.
The new comedy deals with the division in our country in a way that is fair to both sides and might just reveal that we have more in common than we think. Using laughs to expose the humanity in us all, Human Error is a hilarious, touching, and sometimes sad trip through the reality of being an American today.
The production is directed by Jennifer Nasta Zefutie and features Christine Penney, Justin Derry, Marissa Wolf, Kevin Palardy, and Peter Relmann.
Performances are on Friday, September 21 at 8:00pm; Saturday, September 22 at 8:00pm; Sunday, September 23 at 2:00pm; Thursday, September 27 at 1:00pm; Friday, September 28 at 8:00pm; Saturday, September 29 at 8:00pm; and Sunday, September 30 at 2:00pm. Tickets range from $22-26.
Pegasus Theatre Company performs at the West Windsor Arts Center, 952 Alexander Rd., Princeton Junction, NJ. The West Windsor Arts Center is conveniently located across the street from the Princeton Junction train station and just off of Route 1.
