For those unfamiliar with the play, here’s the synopsis from the WP Theater website:

“Why is it still like this?” Janice sighs to Eliza. It’s 1992, and Eliza is the brainy new recruit at a small-shop architecture firm. But she’s struggling to get a foothold on even the lowest rung of the company ladder, and starts making moves to blow the lid off their pandora’s box of office politics and social maneuvering, in this sharply hilarious black comedy. Rebeck brings her trademark blistering wit to the workplace in this darkly funny and all-too-relevant comedy of gender politics.

 

The play has also already received some high praise from various media outlets:

“A juicy black comedy!” – Variety

“A swift and merrily vicious kick in the pants!” – Washington Post

“Theresa Rebeck totally and completely nails it in her latest play! A biting, brilliant comedy!” – Houston Chronicle

What We’re Up Against will have a limited four-week run, from October 28 – November 26.  For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit wp.theater.org.

MARG ATTENDS THE 24TH ANNUAL RACE TO ERASE MS GALA

Last night Marg attended the 24th annual Race to Erase MS Gala.  This is a cause that is near to Marg’s heart because her father passed away in 1985 due to complications from MS.  The Race to Erase MS is an organization that is “dedicated to the treatment and ultimate cure of Multiple Sclerosis.  Funding research is the core focus of the Foundation and all funds raised support our Center Without Walls program, a selected network of the nation’s top MS research centers.”  To learn more about this organization, visit www.erasems.org.  Here are a couple of highlights from Marg’s attendance at this year’s event.
