Tell Me You Love Me

Bitter Sauce Theatre presents the world premiere of Tell Me You Love Me, a new play by San Francisco playwright and actor Jack Karp, directed by Tom Parker. Tell Me You Love Me is the story of four friends living in New York City in the months following the September 11th attacks and the effects the fear of that period has on their marriages and relationships. This quickly paced whirlwind of a play echoes the relentless cycle of government warnings and breaking news that has been the norm ever since the attacks. From the stripping of our civil rights to the rounding up of Middle Eastern immigrants to the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq and the prison abuse scandals that followed, the play, much like the morning paper and the nightly news, is about the mean, stupid things people do to each other when they’re scared.
