Betty’s Summer Vacation

Onyx Theatre hosts award-winning director Rob Kastil’s take on Christopher Durang’s Betty’s Summer Vacation. The play is a jaded, satirical look at our society’s obsession with lurid crimes, celebrity trials and talk show confessionals.

Spend the summer with Betty! Her dream vacation at a lovely beach house turns mordantly funny as her roommates arrive: an incessant chatterer, a pathological womanizer, the emotionally anarchic landlady, and a sweet, withdrawn young man who may or may not be a serial killer. All this plus an insane derelict with a penchant for flashing, and a relentless laugh track that won’t stop chuckling whenever someone is molested, dismembered or murdered.
