WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
The Cherry Lane Theatre presents the 41st Anniversary production of Happy Days, Beckett's witty comedy about marriage, in which Winnie, the elegant wife, entertains herself, her less-than elegant husband Willie and us, with her artful ways of getting through yet another day of married life.

Running Time: 1 hour and 35 minutes
15 minute intermission
