Bad Dates

Bad Dates opened our 2006-2007 season, and was directed by Collaborative Arts co-founder Elise Wilkinson.

This is a good example of our experiential approach to theatre. The show was staged in an actual apartment, very much like one the character would live in. This intimate setting brought the audience in close with the actor; we believe this gave them a real connection to the piece.

Here are copies of reviews from the Charlotte Observer and Creative Loafing.

BAD DATES  
a comedy by Theresa Rebeck 

directed by Elise Wilkinson 
featuring Laurie Riffe 
   



Armed with a sharp wit and a killer collection of designer shoes, thirty-something single mom Haley Walker is diving back into the dating pool after a 12-year dry spell.

Join us for the hilarious and touching encounters with her suitors...

-- and with the Romanian mob!


"Irresistibly charming and bubbling over with good cheer...Bad Dates manages to say a touching thing or two about life. This is a feat as tricky to pull off as dancing in a pair of stilettos."
- Boston Globe
