MCC Theater's Collective Rage: A Play in 5 Betties
Meet five different women named Betty: one rich, one lonely, one charismatic, one lovelorn, and one who keeps working on her truck. Oh, and one has decided to stage a production of that play-within-a-play by… that old English guy, what's his name? Ah, forget it. In Jen Silverman’s unpredictable comedy Collective Rage: A Play in 5 Betties, five women collide at the intersection of rage, love, and the “thea-tah,” provoking each other to take a look in the mirror and face the person they didn’t know they could be. Directed by Mike Donahue ("The Legend of Georgia McBride"), this New York premiere invites us all to be a little braver, live a little louder, laugh a little harder, and unleash our inner Betty.
