WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Set in present-day Los Angeles, Divorce! The Musical takes us on Penny and Rich's journey, as their fairy-tale marriage unravels. Denial, deception, and raw outrage collide with greedy lawyers, dramatically inclined family members, mountains of paperwork and out-to-lunch therapists. From "Till Death Do Us Part" to "I'm Living In My Parents' Basement And My Friends Forgot My Name" to the realization that each spouse is only left with "Half," Divorce! The Musical reminds us that laughing in the face of tragedy can sometimes be the best way to move on.

What are other members saying?
Absolutely excellent and entertaining!
We went to this performance, not knowing quite what to expect and came away saying we were going to see it again! This is an intelligent look at divorce and the system that surrounds it. It asks some hard questions and keeps it very real but the lyrics and story have plenty of humor and wit as well. The actors are really talented and the pace is fast and entertaining. Youll find yourself laughing and thinking seriously at the same time - go see it! Highly recommend.
