Sunday on the Rocks
by Theresa Rebeck
directed by Leslie Drescher
produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
On a beautiful Sunday morning in mid-October, three housemates decide to have scotch for breakfast in this play by author of Spike Heels, The Family of Mann, and Loose Knit. Elly is pregnant and considering an abortion, Jen is being harassed by a co-worker who is obsessed with her, and Gayle just feels a bit lost. Their problems are compounded by a fourth roommate, Jessica, a religious young woman who has little compassion for their confused attempts to make sense of life in the nineties. As they drink, joke, and argue, it becomes clear how difficult it is to make a moral decision in an increasingly complex world.
