"The Real Thing" by Tom Stoppard

Friday, June 23, 2023 @ 8:00pm



Studio Playhouse
14 Alvin Place, Upper Montclair, NJ 07043

Why pay "Leopoldstadt" prices on Broadway when Tom Stoppard's "The Real Thing" is right here in Jersey? Cue one passionate but never fully satisfying love affair between Henry and Annie. When their affair starts, Henry is already married to Charlotte and Annie is married to Max. Soon they both divorce their partners and marry each other. Themes of marriage, infidelity, and honesty are played out with a fresh and quick-witted comedic style. The play examines both the pain and passion that love can bring into peoples’ lives.

Performed by Studio Players June 9-11; June 16-18; June 23-24
