Tickets can be bought at the link [here](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2001253603400?aff=oddtdtcreator). You will need to purchase your ticket at the link before you RSVP, as RSVPing here will not reserve you a seat. Please note that, unlike our normal readings, this play will be presented by professional actors, and attendees will be in the audience. The performance will be held at The Pete in The The Flea at 20 Thomas St. I will put what I am wearing on the day of the event in the comments so you can find us if you are running late. We hope you enjoy this staged reading! Synopsis: The long-standing, interconnected lives of two couples, Karen and Gabe and Beth and Tom, are shattered when Beth and Tom reveal they are divorcing.
