Parallel Lives on outdoor stage at Alliance for the Arts

Live theatre returns outdoors and with social distancing at the Alliance for the Arts.
They’ve been hard at work to create an intimate, open-air venue where our neighbors can safely enjoy live entertainment.
Reserve your square for Kathy and Mo now. This has all of the right ingredients to make you laugh the night away. In the opening scene, two Supreme Beings plan the beginning of the world with the relish of two slightly sadistic suburban wives decorating a living room. Once they’ve decided on the color scheme of the races, a little concerned that white people will feel slighted being such a boring color, they create sex and the sexes. Afraid women will have too many advantages, the Beings decide to make childbirth painful and to give men enormous egos as compensation. From this moment, the audience is whisked through the outrageous universe of Kathy and Mo, where two actresses play men and women struggling through the common rituals of modern life.
With boundless humor, Parallel Lives re-examines the ongoing quest to find parity and love in a contest handicapped by capricious gods—or in this case, goddesses.
Performances are Dec. 3, 4, 5, 10, 11 and 12 at 7:30 p.m. and Dec. 6 at 3 p.m. For safety reasons, all tickets must be purchased in advanced.
