> The Play:
> This is one funky play. Newly divorced 38-year-old Elizabeth, an urban planner, moves to New York City for a fresh start. She meets her friend Kate, a kindergarten teacher, and Lucas, a community organizer, in Madison Square Park. Kate suggests that Elizabeth start using the name "Liz" and seek out new experiences. Lucas suggests that she go back to her college nickname, "Beth," and start making professional connections in the city. The musical then shows both possibilities playing out. "Liz" stays in the park with Kate while "Beth" leaves with Lucas, and the remainder of the show depicts two paths that Elizabeth's life could take. Got it? I bet not. Wonderful music and a confusing if geeky book. Be a  part of a production that will break convention.
