Easy Women Smoking Loose Cigarettes
Live performances of Easy Women Smoking Loose Cigarettes have been cancelled, and the streaming video is no longer available.
The latest Heidi Thomas Writers’ Initiative is a surprising comedy about opening your home, occasionally your wallet, and always your heart.
Marian, the matriarch of a far-flung Jewish family, had happily settled into retirement life with her new husband Richard. However, when a pregnant niece, the troubled boy next door and a distressed daughter with a secret show up at her door, Marian’s empty nest ends up a little fuller than she imagined.
This firecracker play by DC area playwright Dani Stoller takes the dysfunction, puts it back in the family, then gives it a hilarious—and subversive—stir.
Running time 1 hour and 34 minutes.
Contains an onstage sex scene, partial nudity and cigarette smoking (herbal).
