Join us for **Good People**, a gripping and heartfelt drama about survival, second chances, and the divide between the haves and have-nots. ***You can use our promo code to purchase discount tickets for any performance.*** **THE PLAY:** It’s been a rough road for Margie, a single mother living in South Boston. Having just been fired from her job at The Dollar Store, Margie scrambles to find a way for her and her daughter to survive. She decides to contact Mike, an old fling from her high school days, who has become a successful doctor, in the hopes that he (or someone he knows) might have a job for her. As they reconnect, secrets and sacrifices are revealed. Pulitzer Prize winning playwright, David Lindsay-Abaire, has created a “masterpiece of contemporary theatre” that explores the themes of class, morality and resilience. In our world, where the rift between the haves and have-nots grows ever wider, Good People is bound to resonate with today’s audiences. *Recommended for age 14 and up.
