About the Show
Newlyweds Paul and Corie Bratter are just starting their life together in a tiny fifth-floor walk-up in New York City. He’s a straight-laced attorney, and she’s a free spirit. Add in an overbearing mother-in-law, an eccentric neighbor, and no working heat — and the honeymoon is officially over.This fresh adaptation brings together Deaf and hearing actors to tell the story in both American Sign Language and spoken English, with open captions provided at every performance. Audiences of all backgrounds are invited to experience this heartfelt comedy in a fully inclusive, fully accessible way.This production invites you into the real-life intersections of Deaf and hearing worlds — where communication, connection, and comedy come to life on stage.
